Customer Reviews — [1] Rating: 4 Date: 2010-07-25 Summary: A calculus student's opinion ... Admittedly, I've never used another calculus textbook, but I generally found this one to be good enough that I could learn from it. I have read the chapters before and after class and generally found the book to helpful in my understanding of the subject material. Having said that, I like math and have a very strong base in algebra, so the examples never really left me wondering (as so many people have complained about). It's not magic he's using to solve problems, it's algebra. Stewart skips steps in his example problems ...more
[2] Rating: 5 Date: 2010-05-22 Summary: The best for beginner ... I went over Larson twice and Stewart once as a part of my Calculus I II III study. So here is how I feel the difference between Larson 8th edition and Stewart 6th edition. Stewart text is better than Larson, especially in multivariable calculus section. I would say it is 50% better. Because the graphics are much better and clear. The multivariable figures in Larson rumble together and take quite awhile to decode. Moreover, Stewart also explain the concepts behind the multivariable better. Although it is not very rigorous, ...more

[2] Rating: 4 Date: 2009-09-26 Summary: Great examples, useful reference sheets ... This book was required for my Calculus II course, and would also be used for Calc I (if I had taken it), as well as Calc III. So far, around 1/3 of the way through the semester, I have found the book to be very helpful. Whenever I had questions about some of the material, I found it was more useful to refer to the book, than my notes. There are 5 tear out reference sheets found in the front/back, which are great for referring back to. Unfortunately, since they are tear-out, this means that if you want them you'll have ...more

[4] Rating: 4 Date: 2009-06-26 Summary: Fantastic book, if used correctly. ... I debated for quite a while about whether this was a 4 or 5 star book, in reality it's probably about 4.5 I used this book for Calculus 1, 2, and 3. THE GOOD: Almost no errata -- This book was amazingly consistent, very high quality here, almost no errors in it. Comprehensive -- This book did a very good job of being thorough about the topics it covered. Concise -- Even though it was thorough, it wasn't extremely long, the sections were split small enough that it was fairly easy to get through. No faith required -- ...more

Customer Reviews — [1] Rating: 4 Date: 2009-09-09 Summary: great tool when the tutor's office is closed ... the book is great - it covers chapters 10 through 17, it has the solutions for all the odd questions (student manuals never give odds and evens). and the solutions are written in a step by step progression that helps cement the correct way to solve the problems. i used the single variable solutions manual for Calc II, and it helped me understand the course enough to finally pass it (with an A), and now that i purchased this manual for calc III I've no doubt i'll pull through again. ...more
