Book Description
This is a textbook for the third semester of calculus. The major topics are multiple integrals in rectangular, polar, cylindrical and spherical coordinates and vector calculus including vector fields, line integrals and the theorems of Green, Stokes and Gauss (divergence). The text has explanations, examples, worked solutions, problem sets and answers. It has been reviewed by calculus instructors and class-tested by them and the author. Topics are typically introduced by way of applications, and the text contains the usual theorems and techniques of a third semester of calculus. Besides technique practice and applications of the techniques, the examples and problem sets are also designed to help students develop a visual and conceptual understanding of the main ideas of calculus. The exposition and problem sets have been highly rated by reviewers

Book Description
An authorised reissue of the long out of print classic textbook, Advanced Calculus by the late Dr Lynn Loomis and Dr Shlomo Sternberg both of Harvard University has been a revered but hard to find textbook for the advanced calculus course for decades.This book is based on an honors course in advanced calculus that the authors gave in the 1960's. The foundational material, presented in the unstarred sections of Chapters 1 through 11, was normally covered, but different applications of this basic material were stressed from year to year, and the book therefore contains more material than was covered in any one year. It can accordingly be used (with omissions) as a text for a year's course in advanced calculus, or as a text for a three-semester introduction to analysis.The prerequisites are a good grounding in the calculus of one variable from a mathematically rigorous point of view, together with some acquaintance with linear algebra. The reader should be familiar with limit and continuity type arguments and have a certain amount of mathematical sophistication. As possible introductory texts, we mention Differential and Integral Calculus by R Courant, Calculus by T Apostol, Calculus by M Spivak, and Pure Mathematics by G Hardy. The reader should also have some experience with partial derivatives.In overall plan the book divides roughly into a first half which develops the calculus (principally the differential calculus) in the setting of normed vector spaces, and a second half which deals with the calculus of differentiable manifolds.

Book Description
Chicken of Calculus?If you've ever been lost trying to solve a calculus problem, this step-by-step guide is your salvation! * Never be mystifed again! Solutions contain lots of intermediate steps not found in other calculus student-solutions manuals. * Includes more examples that are completely worked out in detailed step-by-step fashion. (Many texts assume?wrongly?that students can figure out the missing steps on their own.) * No assumptions that the student has excellent algebra skills (as most books do), so even the basic steps that include algebra concepts are worked out. * Also included are examples of what NOT to do. Many instructors find that this is the ?missing link? between the textbook and the student. * Divided into three sections: Part 1 contains study tips, hits and ?tricks? for students that are usually not covered explicitly in calculus texts; Part 2 includes a huge test bank; Part 3 has completely worked out examples for the test bank. * Embodies a conversational and colloquial style, avoiding the traditional technical and dry presentation approach found in most books on mathematics.

Book Description
"Published by OpenStax College, Calculus is designed for the typical two- or three-semester general calculus course, incorporating innovative features to enhance student learning. The book guides students through the core concepts of calculus and helps them understand how those concepts apply to their lives and the world around them. Due to the comprehensive nature of the material, we are offering the book in three volumes for flexibility and efficiency. Volume 2 covers integration, differential equations, sequences and series, and parametric equations and polar coordinates."--BC Campus website.
