Can't say much It was a course book but understandable
Exactly I have said in the title it. We have completed calculations 1, 2 and 3 on this. Large for the principianti.


Fantastic text
My son is currently at Harvard where he is taking Calculus II. He called home, requesting we forward his Larson textbook that he used for AP Calc in high school. It helped him tremendously with concepts he just wasn't getting at one of the top schools in the nation--and he has shared this textbook with his professor at Harvard!

Kudos to the author of this wonderfully written book.


Calculus Ain't Easy
First things first: If there was a ten star rating it would apply
to this book. Secondly, I found these authors through another of
their books, "Precalculus With Limits - A Graphing Approach". That book was just as well written. Truth be told, I would buy any of their books, sight unseen. They are a students
teacher and a teachers teacher. They don't sacrifice rigor, nor do they forget the mathematical maturity of their student audience. Using their books alone, and self-study (no classes,
tutors, or the intellectual diet pill category of "Calculus Made
Simple" or "Calculus The Easy Way" silver bullets I filled a forty year gap in math studies in 1-1/2 years to the point of
acing the AP Calculus and AP Physics Exams. Knowing calculus prior to beginning physics with calculus is an absolute necessity. I am no genuis. I do not have exceptional ability. I simply had the advantage of two textbooks written by teachers who
really care and take a mentoring approach to writing. All of this
has really been a long-winded way of saying that with this book
and a healthy dose of strong motivation and perserverance you will succeed in your calculus courses.


A great book!
The best book about Calculus I ever seen. Read it and you will know all about you need to love mathematics.


Absolutely Fantastic Textbook
This is no doubt the best textbook I have ever owned in any subject. I've never been able to actually read through a math text untill this book came along. The analytic graphs are colorful (and the 3-D generated ones are simply astounding) which is totally different from the dull, dreary, and nightmarish math texts from my past. This math book is unlike any other I have seen before -- in a class of its own. There are plenty of examples, charts, and many many exercises(some especially challenging). I went through Calculus I and have taught myself Calc II within a matter of weeks. Highly recommended.


I've used this book for CalcI,II,III. It's great!
I'd say it's the best book I've used for learning calculus. The chapters are rigorous, but not too much so that you get lost in the details of the concepts. The homework problems are good, and I'd recommend getting the 2 companion solution guides, available from the publisher directly. I was fortunate enough to use the same book for my first 3 calc classes, which allowed some great continuity in learning, and cross referencing of similar concepts from other chapters. I'd recommend this book to all teachers. It's even OK for self study. I can only hope my upcoming ODE class uses a text written by these talented authors.


The New Standard in Calculus Instruction
This review is a paraphrase shorter than a review that the much longest one and more completes I have written hardly before that my calculating has been arrested. I will be to along bitter. The calculation is difficult to learn. No handbook can never be "calculation from Osmosis." acknowleges "of Larson/Hostetler" the this and recognizes ventunesimo the century at the same time. The design of the book is of reciprocation, colorful and elegant, evidenced through the illustrations generated from calculating, one medium of one for the page, the graceful volumetric shapes ruotate approximately their axes and well constructed tables and simple outlines and. The students of the today, used to the means that do not demand they nothing, will appreciate the capitulations of the planners to their needs in order to make theirs to hold eyes from color and figure, for being handled around to one page from something more of the text. The book is more instructionally of the sound. The relati to you examples that illustrate every discreet concept, everyone delineated and regulated clearly to part in relative the own section, are available the simplest one; they are champions. But more of those, the relati ones to you insiemi of problem, benchè enormous, they are routes in on in the didactic methods different us that they adopt. And these methods are exhausting. They examine the concepts of calculation from every possible angle, possibly including some that it has not existed before the publication of this book. This book is published in a moment in which many they are debating the survival of the book. Been reading this review on the Internet and you are informs you of the explosive ability to this means to inform. The edition still is not determined and many potentially exile the book to the condition of an art shape, as to recintare. The barrier of Hostetler and Larson their bets and has produced the companions of multiaverage to this book (or perhaps hardly to a Web site, they are not sure.) This critic has not seen these. Any the case, students in way today still crushing uses the books in the classroom. This book is a ponticello adapted between the current declares of the average transactions and that what of instruction must come. It is available the best one.


excellent
It renders to paricolare, to the point, a lot detailed, two inches in on
