Applied Calculus for Business, Economics, Life Sciences and Social Sciences (7th Edition)
Editorial Reviews
Book Description
The eighth edition of Applied Calculus for Business, Economics, Life Sciences, and Social Sciences is designed for a one- or two-term course in calculus and for students who have had 1 1/2 - 2 years of high school algebra or the equivalent. The choice and independence of topics make the text readily adaptable to a variety of courses (see the Chapter Dependency Chart on page vii). It is one of five books in the authors' college mathematics series. Improvements in this edition evolved out of the generous response from a large number of users of the last and previous editions as well as survey results from instructors, mathematics departments, course outlines, and college catalogs. Fundamental to a book's growth and effectiveness is classroom use and feedback. Now in its eighth edition, Applied Calculus for Business Economics, Life Sciences, and Social Sciences has had the benefit of having a substantial amount of both.
