About the Author

Disambiguation Notice:

Anton has many different calculus textbooks: Calculus: A New Horizon , Calculus, then "Early Transcendentals" and "Late Transcendentals" versions of the latter calculus text. Both the Early and late versions come in 1 of 4 verions: Single, Multivariable, Brief, and Combined (Single and Multivariable). In addition, his Linear Algebra and Linear Algebra with Applications texts are treated as the same work. Most of his books come with separate study guides, which are treated as separate works.

I used the Howard Anton series as an undergraduate and recall it fondly. Still have it on my shelf....
Este texto ha sido proyectado para un curso de tres semestres o cuatro trimestres. El propósito del autor es presentar el material en la forma más clara posible. El esfuerzo principal se ha dedicado a la enseñanza del tema con un nivel adecuado para la mayoría de los estudiantes de cálculo.

Cualquier persona que haya impartido un curso de cálculo sabe que el mismo comprende tal cantidad de material que es imposible para el instructor dedicar el tiempo adecuado en el salón de clases a show more cada tópico. Por esta razón, un libro de texto de cálculo lleva una parte sustancial del peso en el proceso de enseñanza. El autor espera que a este libro se le reconozca el mérito de presentar explicaciones acertadas, claras y completas, gracias a las cuales el instructor puede aprovechar mejor su tiempo en el salón de clases.

A lo largo de todo el libro aparecen abundantes aplicaciones en física, ingeniría, biología, crecimiento demográfico, química y economía. Las seies de ejercicios se inician con problemas para adquirir destreza y se pasa de manera gradual a problemas de mayor dificultad. Se procuró presentar series de ejercicios balanceadas, con una variedad mayor que la existente en los textos de cálculo. Las respuestas, incluyendo los recursos auxiliares, se dan para los problemas nones, y todos los capítulos contienen un grupo de problemas de revisión para ayudar al estudiante a afirmar su dominio del capítulo.804

Again Wiley can't use formating to save their life, authors for Wiley please get them to fix these horrors. Your information is getting lost in the trash presentation.
