This book is a response to those coaches who feel that the calculus is very large. In writing the book James Stewart asked himself: What is necessary for the course of calculus three chapters of scientists and engineers? Stewart's ESSENTIAL CALCULUS offers a brief curriculum for teaching concepts that focus on key concepts and supports these concepts with precise definitions, patient explanations, and carefully graduated problems.

The basic calculus is only 850 pages - two thirds the size of other calculus in Stewart (CALCULUS, 5th Edition and CALCULUS, early TRANSCENTENTALS, 5th edition) - yet contains almost the same subjects. The author achieved this relative brevity mainly by intensifying the exhibition and putting some features on the website, www.StewartCalculus.com.

Despite the low volume of the book, there is still a modern flavor: concepts and technology are not neglected, although they are not as prominent as in other Stuart books. The basic wisdom was written with the same attention to detail, and the innovation, and the meticulousness that Stuart's books have become the best-selling books in the world..

I want that book.
