Essential Calculus, 2nd Edition

This book is for instructors who think that most calculus textbooks are too long. The book is only 900 pages-two-thirds the size of Stewart's other calculus texts, and yet it contains almost all of the same topics. Despite the more compact size, the book has a modern flavor, covering technology and incorporating material to promote conceptual understanding, though not as prominently as in Stewart's other books. ESSENTIAL CALCULUS features the same attention to detail, eye for innovation, and meticulous accuracy that have made Stewart's textbooks the best-selling calculus texts in the world.\n\nIn writing the book, James Stewart asked himself: What is essential for a three-semester calculus course for scientists and engineers' ESSENTIAL CALCULUS, Second Edition, offers a concise approach to teaching calculus that focuses on major concepts, and supports those concepts with precise definitions, patient explanations, and carefully graded problems.
