Summary:

Stewart's CALCULUS: EARLY TRANSCENDENTALS, Fifth Edition has the mathematical precision, accuracy, clarity of exposition and outstanding examples and problem sets that have characterized the first four editions. Stewart retains the focus on problem solving and the pedagogical system that has made the book a favorite of students and instructors in a wide variety of colleges and universities throughout the world. The structure of CALCULUS: EARLY TRANSCENDENTALS, Fifth Edition, remains largely unchanged, the sole exception being that the review of inverse trigonometric functions has been moved from an appendix to Section 1.6. Stewart has made hundreds of small improvements: new examples, additional steps in existing examples, updating of data in existing examples and exercises, new phrases and margin notes to clarify the exposition, references to other sources and web sites, redrawn art, and references to the TEC CD (Tools for Enriching Calculus). These refinements ensure that students and instructors using this text are using the best resource available. The number of pages in the book, however, remains unchanged from the 4th edition. This edition is complemented with and expanded array of supplementary material for both students and instructors. These best-selling texts differ from CALCULUS, Fifth Edition in that the exponential and logarithmic functions are covered earlier. In the Fifth Edition of CALCULUS, EARLY TRANSCENDENTALS these functions are introduced in the first chapter and their limits and derivatives are found in Chapters 2 and 3 at the same time as polynomials and other elementary functions.

good price, but ....should tell me the condition of the book more than the word "Acceptable"

I thought i wrote the review already, but amazon wants me to review it again.....
hmmm, it's a good price for this book, but the seller should tell me the book is molded on the website.....

a good textbook
Customer Rating:  Score = 5 Score = 5 Score = 5 Score = 5 Score = 5

I taught many semesters of calculus out of this book. The kids who come to class and do their homework seem to like the book. I checked to see which books California universities used in their standard calculus classes. Half of the UCs use a Stewart text. Over 70% of the CSUs use a Stewart text.

Overall Decent Calculus Book
Customer Rating:  Score = 4 Score = 4 Score = 4 Score = 4 Score = 4

The obvious: this book is long, bulky and expensive. However, there is the option of buying it used, and if you don't intend to do all three courses of calculus (or you spend a lot of time carrying your books around), it may make sense to buy the book in parts -- it's also sold in Calc 1/Calc 2/Multivariable sections.

As for the content, the text is nothing spectacular: while Stewart manages to nail some things, presenting them clearly and succinctly, there are also many long useless passages. My advice: don't try to read the book, just study his examples, which are often (but not always) quite good, and hope your teacher does a better job explaining the concepts that missed out on a good explanation here.

For good examples, good problems, good page layout and a favorable comparison to other mainstream university-level calculus texts, I rate it a 4/5.

Near Excellent.
Customer Rating:  Score = 4 Score = 4 Score = 4 Score = 4 Score = 4

Outside a little more beaten up than expected, inside written in when seller said it was new. Other than that, great book, delivered when expected.

Definitely Used
Customer Rating:  Score = 4 Score = 4 Score = 4 Score = 4 Score = 4

This product was used more than once. I'm just glad I received a refund for my return. Not buying from college books direct again.
