Calculus: Early Transcendentals (2nd Edition)

Thanks. Great book!

If you're a STEM major, you'll be hard-pressed to find a more clear and concise intro to calculus. This is THE book to read if math makes you apprehensive -- if you read it carefully and thoroughly it's very difficult to get lost, even if you "suck" at math. The examples have full explanations and are relevant to the problem sets. There's adequate build-up without cumbersome formalism for the bigger ideas. An all-round great book for beginners.With that said, if you're looking for something more rigorous and thorough, I would suggest Spivak (which is a great second-read, imo.).In an upper division class one of my professors (somewhat) jokingly said we're spoiled because we learned calculus with Briggs, I couldn't agree more.

Best Calculus book out there!

Using this as a textbook for a math class. IT DOES NOT INCLUDE THE MATHLAB ACCESS CODE. Covers numerous semesters/quarters of calculus, so this may be the only book you will need for math. This is all I use aside from attending lectures. Very useful practice! There are answers for odd problems in the back of the book.

The book came in good condition.

Great book that I’ve used from Calc 1 through Calc 3. Well explained concepts and plenty of examples. I recommend pairing the book with the Photomath app which will help complete homework assignments and show steps to complete.Purchased as “New”, unfortunately it was clearly a used book. Disappointed that I was mislead.

This was a free copy to instructors that was not in the description for the book - at the price paid it should have been mentioned and allow for judgement for purchase - I won't be able to sell this item back to bookstores with it as an instructors copy across the top.

This book is formatted in away that this example correlated with these questions over here. It’s a good structure to get the student to understand set material.
