The most successful new calculus text in the last two decades
The much-anticipated 3rd Edition of Briggs' Calculus: Multivariable retains its hallmark features while introducing important advances and refinements. Briggs, Cochran, Gillett, and Schulz build from a foundation of meticulously crafted exercise sets, then draw students into the narrative through writing that reflects the voice of the instructor. Examples are stepped out and thoughtfully annotated, and figures are designed to teach rather than simply supplement the narrative. The groundbreaking eText contains approximately 700 Interactive Figures that can be manipulated to shed light on key concepts. For the 3rd Edition, the authors synthesized feedback on the text content from over 140 instructors. This thorough and extensive review process, paired with the authors' own teaching experiences, helped create a text that is designed for today's calculus instructors and students.
For 3- to 4-semester courses covering single-variable and multivariable calculus, taken by students of mathematics, engineering, natural sciences, or economics.
