Synopsis
For standard undergraduate Calculus courses. Multivariable Calculus now has a full chapter of material on matrices and eigenvalues up front. All of Multivariable Calculus has been rewritten with matrix notation.* NEW-Linear algebra and matrices-Found in Semester III. Linear systems and matrices through determinants and eigenvalues are now introduced in Chapter 11. The subsequent multivariable chapters now integrate matrix methods and terminology with traditional multivariable calculus (e.g., the chain rule in matrix form). * NEW-CD-ROM/WWW learning resources fully integrated throughout-The 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. The whole text is available in interactive Maple notebooks. * NEW-320 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 higher-end problems at the ends of problem sets.
* NEW-True/False Study Guide-Ten author-written true/false questions (with hints) review each section. These 1080 new questions are not printed in the book, but the icon takes you to them on the CD-ROM. * NEW-Computer projects-At the end of each section. Now briefer, with the deletion of in-text technology details. Maple/Mathematica/Matlab/Calculator resources for each Project are included on the CD-ROM. * A lively and accessible writing style. * The most extensively visual text in the market-Highlighted by hundreds of Mathematica and MATLAB generated figures throughout the book. * More than 795 new problems-Almost all of these are in the intermediate range of difficulty, neither highly theoretical nor computationally routine. Some reflect an emphasis on new technology by encouraging the use of technology ranging from a graphing calculator to a computer algebra system. * Website available to users-With student help center staffed by graduate students available on Sunday evenings.
Site includes animations of most text examples with 'what-if' scenarios, challenging applications that require the user to have some type of number crunching software, self-paced quizzes, and internet links of additional calculus material.
