Description

This text is written for students preparing for a career in business, economics, psychology, sociology, architecture, or the life, social, environmental, or physical sciences. The exposition is designed to provide a sound, intuitive understanding of the basic concepts of calculus without sacrificing mathematical accuracy. Every exercise set includes writing problems that are related to issues raised in the examples and exercises. These problems challenge a student's critical-thinking skills and invite students to research topics on their own and to communicate about mathematics using words, not just symbols.
