Book Reviews of Calculus: Early Transcendentals (Stewart's Calculus Series)
Book Review: An excellent guide to calculus!
Summary: 5 Stars
I have recently completed my second semester of calculus, and this textbook was used for each class. I was quite impressed by it. It starts out simply enough with a unit on functions and gradually leads the student deeper into more advanced concepts, such as differentiation, integration, integration techniques, numerical series, and vector analysis. The book also includes a chapter giving an introduction to differential equations, and it contains several appendices dealing with trigonometry, logarithms, complex numbers, and more; making this book excellent as a math reference as well as a class textbook. That's why I have no intention of selling it back after the class!
Each new concept is illustrated with several examples, and numerous exercises accompany each section. The author strikes a good balance between being overly abstract and overly concrete, so you can make this book work for you no matter what your style of learning math may be. It contains interesting side notes on the history of mathematics, and the pages are laid out in a way that's pleasing to the eye. All in all, a very well-constructed book.
I'm NOT saying that this book makes learning calculus easy-such a book does not exist, unless you're a math prodigy! Stewart's Calculus will, however, give you thorough guidance as you learn this difficult yet fascinating subject. Calculus is very hard to learn with any approach, but with confidence and plenty of effort, it can be mastered and I've found it a very fulfilling area of study. Hopefully you will also.
