Annotated Table of Contents and Chapter by Chapter Changes
  • Classic Thomas text now available in both standard/traditional and early transcendentals versions.
  • Full array of function types and categories available in both versions after a Preliminary Chapter reviewing precalculus treatments. In addition to the usual linear, polynomial, power and rational functions, there are exponential functions, logarithmic functions, parametrizations, inverses of familiar functions, trigonometric functions and inverse trigonometric functions. (The Early Transcendentals version then treats the calculus of these functions all together in the chapters on differentiation and integration.)
  • Each section begins with a listing of subsection headings so that key section concepts are readily apparent.
  • The text continues to be easy to read, conversational, and directed toward the typical science and engineering calculus student. New mathematical ideas are motivated by easily understood examples, and then reinforced by their applications to real-world problems of immediate interest to the student.
  • In this edition, there is an increased emphasis on modeling and applications using real data, and an improved balance of graphical and algebraic/analytic methods and techniques.
  • Historical biographies are now expanded on the CD-Rom and Web site. An icon keys the biographies appropriately within the text.
  • Specific examples and exercises are highlighted and keyed to a new Web site and CD-Rom technology supplement enhancing visualization of key concepts through computer graphics, video, and student application projects.
  • Vectors in the plane are now treated separately in a single chapter at the end of the single-variable calculus material. Three-dimensional vectors are then treated along with the multivariable calculus.
  • Exercise sets:

Continue to be grouped with appropriate group headings;

Have titles indicating the content/application for word problems;

Are marked with a technology icon if they require the use of a grapher or computer;

Are grouped into a section titled "Computer Explorations" if a computer or CAS is required.

· In the treatment of Green's Theorem in the plane, circulation density at a point is introduced as the k-component of a more general circulation vector called the curl, to be treated in detail in the later section on Stokes' Theorem. This resolves the apparent inconsistency of having circulation in the plane be represented by a scalar while circulation in space is represented by a vector.
