This item has been replaced by Calculus, Early Transcendentals, 7/E.

For three-semester undergraduate-level courses in Calculus and for standard undergraduate Calculus courses.

This revision is nearly a new book—yet it retains the accuracy, mathematical precision, and rigor appropriate that it is known for. Chapters 7 and 8 on transcendental functions from the previous edition have been eliminated, and are now integrated fully into Chapters 1-6. Calculus II now has a new focus on differential equations, anchored by a new Chapter 8. However, in the midst of these changes, this book still retains its reputation for accuracy, mathematical precision, and appropriate rigor.

NEW - Early Transcendentals—Fully integrated in Semester I. Solid coverage of the calculus of early transcendental functions is now fully integrated in Chapters 1 through 6 of this edition.
- Helps students relate material from previous courses and allows instructors to introduce more interesting applications earlier in the course.

NEW - Completely new early chapter on differential equations and their applications—Found in Semester II. This new chapter appears immediately after the chapter on techniques of integration. It includes both direction fields and Euler's method, together with the more symbolic elementary methods and applications for both first- and second-order equations.

NEW - CD-ROM learning resources integrated throughout—The free CD-ROM accompanying the book contains a student-usable, functional array of fully integrated learning resources linked to individual sections of the text. Most text examples are animated with “What-If” scenarios. It also contains virtually the entire book in the form of Maple worksheets.

NEW - 330 End-of-section Concepts/Questions and Discussion —Adds beginning conceptual questions that can serve as the basis for either writing assignments or for individual and group discussion. Also added are more challenging problems at the end of many problem sets.

NEW - True/False Study Guides—Author-written true/false questions are provided to help students review each section. These 1050 new questions are located on the new CD-ROM. In-text icons direct students to these questions.

NEW - Technology projects—At the end of many sections. Now briefer, with the deletion of in-text technology details. Maple/Mathematica/MATLAB/Calculator resources for each Project are included on the CD-ROM.

NEW - About 600 new problems—Ranging in difficulty, with both theoretical and computational exercises. Some reflect an emphasis on new technology by encouraging the use of technology ranging from a graphing calculator to a computer algebra system.

A lively and accessible writing style—Authors renowned for their clarity and expert exposition of topics.

The most extensively visual text in the market—Highlighted by hundreds of Mathematica and MATLAB generated figures throughout the book.

Companion Website available to users—Site includes animations of most text examples with “what-if” scenarios, homework starters, online syllabus, challenging applications that require the user to have some type of number crunching software, self-paced quizzes, and internet links of additional calculus material.

Author Bios

C. Henry Edwards is emeritus professor of mathematics at the University of Georgia. He earned his Ph.D. at the University of Tennessee in 1960, and recently retired after 40 yearsbf classroom teaching (including calculus or differential eguations almost every term) at the universities of Tennessee, Wisconsin, and Georgia, with a brief interlude at the Institute for Advanced Study (Princeton) as an Alfred P. Sloan Research Fellow. He has received numerous teaching awards, including the University of Georgia's honoratus medal in 1983 (for sustained excellence in honors teaching), its Josiah Meigs award in 1991 (the institution's highest award for teaching), and the 1997 statewide Georgia Regents award for research university faculty teaching excellence. His scholarly career has ranged from research and dissertation direction in topology to the history of mathematics to computing and technology in the teaching and applications of mathematics. In addition to being author or co-author of calculus, advanced calculus, linear algebra, and differential equations textbooks, he is well-known to calculus instructors as author of The Historical Development of the Calculus (Springer-Verlag, 1979). During the 1990s he served as a principal investigator on three NSF-supported projects: (1) A school mathematics project including Maple for beginning algebra students, (2) A Calculus-with-Mathematica program, and (3) A MATLAB-based computer lab project for numerical analysis and differential equations students.

David E. Penney, University of Georgia, completed his Ph.D. at Tulane University in 1965 (under the direction of Prof. L. Bruce Treybig) while teaching at the University of New Orleans. Earlier he had worked in experimental biophysics at Tulane University and the Veteran's Administration Hospital in New Orleans under the direction of Robert Dixon McAfee, where Dr. McAfee's research team's primary focus was on the active transport of sodium ions by biological membranes. Penney's primary contribution here was the development of a mathematical model (using simultaneous ordinary differential equations) for the metabolic phenomena regulating such transport, with potential future applications in kidney physiology, management of hypertension, and treatment of congestive heart failure. He also designed and constructed servomechanisms,for the accurate monitoring of ion transport, a phenomenon involving the measurement of potentials in microvolts at impedances of millions of megohms. Penney began teaching calculus at Tulane in 1957 and taught that course almost every term with enthusiasm and distinction until his retirement at the end of the last millennium. During his tenure at the University of Georgia he received numerous University-wide teaching awards as well as directing several doctoral dissertations and seven undergraduate research projects. He is the author of research papers in number theory and topology and is the author or co-author of textbooks on calculus, computer programming, differential equations, linear algebra, and liberal arts mathematics.
