Summary

Note:  You are purchasing a standalone product; MyMathLab does not come packaged with this content. If you would like to purchase both the physical text and MyMathLab, search for ISBN-10: 0321963636 /ISBN-13: #9780321431301. That package includes ISBN-10: 0321431308 ISBN-13: 9780321431301,  ISBN-10: 0321654064 ISBN-13: 9780321654069 and ISBN-10: 0321954351/ISBN-13: 9780321954350.

MyMathLab is not a self-paced technology and should only be purchased when required by an instructor.

This much anticipated second edition of the most successful new calculus text published in the last two decades retains the best of the first edition while introducing important advances and refinements. Authors Briggs, Cochran, and Gillett build from a foundation of meticulously crafted exercise sets, then draw students into the narrative through writing that reflects the voice of the instructor, examples that are stepped out and thoughtfully annotated, and figures that are designed to teach rather than simply supplement the narrative. The authors appeal to students’ geometric intuition to introduce fundamental concepts, laying a foundation for the development that follows.
