Calculus, Early Transcendentals Brief Edition [Hardcover]

Howard Anton (Author), Stephen Davis (Author), Irl Bivens (Author)

Book Description

Publication Date: August 21, 2001 | ISBN-10: 0471381586 | ISBN-13: 978-0471381587 | Edition: 7th

First year undergraduate calculus courses.

The difference between Early Transcendentals (ET) and Late Transcendentals (LT) is the placement of logs and exponentials (aka trancendentals) in the table of contents and therefore where those topics are covered in the course---either early or late.

The seventh edition continues to evolve to fulfil the needs of a changing market by providing flexible solutions to teaching and learning needs of all kinds. The new edition retains the strengths of earlier editions: e.g., Anton's trademark clarity of exposition; sound mathematics; excellent exercises and examples; and appropriate level, while incorporating new ideas that have withstood the objective scrutiny of many skilled and thoughtful instructors, and their students. For the first time, the seventh edition is available in both Late Transcendentals and Early Transcendentals versions.

This review is from: Calculus, Early Transcendentals Brief Edition (Hardcover)

I purchased these books because these are the ones I use in my calculus AB class. They were firtst recommended by the district and I do supplement work to prepare students for the AP test, but the books have plenty of prblems to do and it is not difficult to read.
