Overview

University Calculus: Early Transcendentals helps you generalize and apply the key ideas of calculus through clear and precise explanations, thoughtfully chosen examples, meticulously crafted figures and superior exercise sets. It offers the right mix of basic, conceptual and challenging exercises along with meaningful applications. In the 4th Edition, new co-authors Chris Heil (Georgia Institute of Technology) and Przemyslaw Bogacki (Old Dominion University) partner with Joel Hass to preserve the text's time-tested features while revisiting every word, figure and question with students like you in mind. It is ideal for 3-semester or 4-quarter courses covering single-variable and multivariable calculus, taken by students of mathematics, engineering, natural sciences or economics.
