Teaching, learning and research solutions provider Cengage Learning, US, has announced a landmark mathematical publication - Brief Applied Calculus - by renowned author and mathematician James Stewart and Daniel Clegg. Published under the Brooks/Cole imprint from Cengage Learning, James Stewart's calculus and precalculus textbooks have educated over 5 million students worldwide.
Brief Applied Calculus takes an intuitive, less formal approach to calculus without sacrificing mathematical integrity. Featuring a wide range of applications designed to motivate students with a variety of interests, clear examples detailing important mathematical processes, and a vast collection of exercises appropriate for students with disparate skill sets, this first edition is projected to be ideal for students who need to learn how to apply calculus concepts rather than replicate the formal proofs behind the techniques. Early coverage of exponential and logarithmic functions allows for the inclusion of many interesting applications throughout the text.
This accesible and modern textbook is available with a range of supplements including Tools for Enriching Calculus, online, interactive simulations that allow applied calculus students to work with animations to deepen their understanding of key concepts. These simulations help students visualise the concepts they are learning and engage students in the lessons.
