This brief edition of Applied Calculus comprises Chapters 1-7 of the complete text plus two sections on differential equations. Designed for the one- or two-semester applied or business calculus course, this text uses intriguing real-world applications to engage students' interest and show them the practical side of calculus. Many applications are financial or business related, but many applications in this text cover general-interest topics as well, including the growing population of Africa, the composition of the Supreme Court, water shortage, the fastest pitch in baseball, and pollution and the depletion of natural resources.The Fourth Edition maintains the hallmark features that have made Brief Applied Calculus so popular: contemporary and interesting applications; careful and effective use of technology, including integrated calculator coverage that is optional; constant pedagogical reinforcement through section summaries, chapter summaries, carefully annotated examples, and extra practice problems; and a variety of exercises and assignment options including exercise sets, projects, and essays.

Does not work with kindle fire,
This review is from: Applied Calculus, Brief (Kindle Edition)
What is the point of calling it a kindle edition if it does not work on the kindle fire?! Its a kindle! I got very excited because I could save loads of money but it doesn't work on the fire tablet. Now I have to spend over 150 bucks for this book. Thanks

Practical Formulas for Real Life,

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Brief Applied Calculus, Fourth Edition (Hardcover)
I had never purchased a brief of anything. The book is a concise edition of what the regular text offers and goes straight into practical applications with already modeled formulas pertaining to several subjects of interest.
My advise is don't waste your time in what won't return something for you. Yes, this is my advice, except in applied math. Learn all you can about math and how it works, and you'll make more sooner than later an outstanding presence in your professional life using this wonderful tool of the mind.
