Description

Designed for students majoring in business, economics, social sciences, or life sciences, this mathematically correct, accessible, and student-friendly introduction to applied calculus prepares students to deal with calculus topics when they are encountered in other areas. The emphasis throughout is on computational skills, ideas, and problem solving - rather than on mathematical theory. Most derivations and proofs are omitted except where their inclusion adds significant insight into a particular concept, and general concepts and results are usually presented only after particular cases have been discussed.
