Book Overview
Built from the ground up, to meet the needs of those learning calculus today, Bradley/Smith,Calculus was the first book to pair a complete calculus syllabus with the best elements of reform-like extensive verbalization and strong geometric visualization. The Third Edition of this groundbreaking book has been crafted and honed, making itthe book of choice for those seeking the best of both worlds. Numerous chapters offer an exciting choice of problem sets and include topics such as vectors in the plane and in space, vector-valued functions, partial differentiation, multiple integration, introduction to vector analysis, and introduction to differential equations. For individuals learning calculus for their futures in various engineering, science, or math fields.

EXCELLENT
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 15 years ago
THIS BOOK IS ONE OF THE BEST CALCULUS TEXT-BOOKS I HAVE EVER SEEN IN THE UNITED STATES. And I have seen about 20 and used about 15 in my entire academic life, on two continents. Most American text-books are written "just to make math look fun". This is one that does approach the concepts of limits, continuity, differentiability with some rigor and logic. There is still a lot of place for improvement, especially om the applications of Calculus to ... Physics, some examples are somewhat clumsy for a good physicist or an engineer who knows physics. HOWEVER, FOR THE MATH MAJOR AND UNDERGRADUATE ENGINEERING MAJOR IT IS AN EXCELLENT TEXT-BOOK. Some problems should be made somewhat harder in a future edition. IT IS A GREAT BOOK FOR THE AVERAGE TO GOOD STUDENT. AND A SCARY BOOK FOR ALL THE STUDENTS WHO WOULD NORMALLY RECEIVE A GRADE OF F, D OR C ANYWHERE AROUND THE GLOBE. Some people are simply not meant to pass Calculus and endanger the world with their bad engineering.
This book is a lifesaver!

This is the most comprehensive, yet easy to understand book on multivariable calculus I have ever seen. It's packed with lots of tips, examples, explanations and graphs. It even includes "how to"'s on multivariable applications using the TI-92. These authors really know how to teach.
