Calculus for Scientists and Engineers [with MyMathLab + eText Access Code]
This package consists of the textbook plus an access kit for MyMathLab/MyStatLab. For a three-semester or four-quarter calculus course covering single variable and multivariable calculus for mathematics, engineering, and science majors.
Briggs/Cochran is the most successful new calculus series published in the last two decades. The authors' years of teaching experience resulted in a text that reflects how students generally use a textbook: they start in the exercises and refer back to the narrative for help as needed. The text therefore builds from a foundation of meticulously crafted exercise sets, then draws 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 rigorous development that follows. To further support student learning, the MyMathLab course features an eBook with 700 Interactive Figures that can be manipulated to shed light on key concepts. In addition, the "Instructor's Resource Guide and Test Bank" features quizzes, test items, lecture support, guided projects, and more. "*This book is an expanded version of "Calculus" by the same authors, with an entire chapter devoted to differential equations, additional sections on other topics, and additional exercises in most sections. See the "Features" section for more details." MyMathLab provides a wide range of homework, tutorial, and assessment tools that make it easy to manage your course online. 0321832094 / 9780321832092 Calculus for Scientists and Engineers plus MyMathLab Student Access Kit Package consists of 0321431308 / 9780321431301 MyMathLab/MyStatLab -- Glue-in Access Card 0321654064 / 9780321654069 MyMathLab Inside Star Sticker 0321826698 / 9780321826695 Calculus for Scientists and Engineers
