"Calculus: One and Several Variables is a classic book known for its elegant writing style, precision, and perfect balance of theory and applications. The book explores the concepts, properties, and applications of the differential and integral calculus. Starting with limits and continuity, the book focuses on derivatives and indefinite integrals of various algebraic and transcendental functions. The book utilizes the fundamental theorem of calculus and the techniques of integration to calculate the area of regions in the plane and the volume and surface area of solids of revolution. It then introduces first-and second-order linear equations including a variety of applications. The book finally covers the basic concepts and techniques to calculate gradients, directional derivatives, curl, arc length of curves, extreme values, line and surface integrals, areas of surfaces, and volumes of solids. This International adaptation includes a wealth of updated problem sets which make calculus relevant for students." --Back cover
