Thomas’ Calculus Early Transcendentals (13th Edition)Pearson (2013) by George B. Thomas Jr., Maurice D. Weir, Joel R. Hass

Thomas’ Calculus, Thirteenth Edition, introduces students to the intrinsic beauty of calculus and the power of its applications. For more than half a century, this text has been revered for its clear and precise explanations, thoughtfully chosen examples, superior figures, and time-tested exercise sets. With this new edition, the exercises were refined, updated, and expanded – always with the goal of developing technical competence while furthering students’ appreciation of the subject. Co-authors Hass and Weir have made it their passion to improve the text in keeping with the shifts in both the preparation and ambitions of today’s students.
Features:
• Strong exercise sets feature a great breadth of problems – progressing from skills problems to applied and theoretical problems – to encourage students to think about and practice the concepts until they achieve mastery
• Figures are conceived and rendered to provide insight for students and support conceptual reasoning
• The flexible table of contents divides complex topics into manageable sections, allowing instructors to tailor their course to meet the specific needs of their students
• Complete and precise multivariable coverage enhances the connections of multivariable ideas with their single-variable analogues studied earlier in the book.
New to this edition:
Two new sections:
• Basic integration formulas and the Substitution Rules combined with algebraic methods and trigonometric identities
• Probability as an application of improper integrals to making predictions for probabilistic models, with a wide range of applications in business and sciences
• Updated and new art, and additional tables, supporting examples and exercises throughout
