Amazon makes life wonderful. One of the toughest job of a parent is getting your children to College. Tuition is already expensive, couple with astronomical prices on text books who can afford College Education anymore.
Thank you Amazon for making College Education a little bit affordable through this program of yours. You are the cutting edge entrepreneur amazingly making life easy. Hurray and Congratulation fo just being the best.

This is a great book to learn Calculus from the beginning, all of the way to Vector Calculus! Most of the explanations and examples are straight forward and easy to follow. Its chapter on sequences and series is very well done in particular. Chapter 16 is lacking a little in thorough explanation that made more sense to me when I touched it up in my physics course, but overall, I highly recommend this book!

This will be nearby for many years to come as a good reference point for calculus.

Nützliches und gut erklärendes Buch. Achtung, Buch ist auf Englisch! Es ist sehr groß und schwer aber dafür beinhaltet auch viel und detailliert erklärt.

Just an awful book. So many complex problems in the exercises, but there are not any examples on how to solve them.

"I'm attending a university and we are using a textbook from another author (Calculus 2nd Edition by Briggs, Cochran, and Gillet). The book I am using for school that is required is not that great because it is written as if you know your math pretty well. What I mean is, you are suppose to know formulas you might have not seen before. With Stewart he explains where you get the formulas from.
I remember grabbing a Calculus textbook when I was taking the AP CAL AB course back in high school (2 years ago). I grabbed the Stewart textbook and calculus made sense after I read the chapters I needed to. I now own two different textbook. If you read the Stewarts Calculus textbook, calculus will make sense and you'll understand the concepts. I use this as my official textbook instead of the one that we are suppose to use at my school that everyone is suppose to use. I have no problems with this textbook. The exercises and all are somewhat hard if you approach them without even reading the section. Please read chapter 1 because it makes calculus more understandable. Stewart is the best. I didn't even know he was that popular. Calculus is also somewhat like geometry in...

Absolutely amazing introductory Calculus textbook! I have used this book for four Calculus classes and it has been superbly clear, illustrious, explicit, and sometimes entertaining. I particularly like Stewart's treatment of each new theorem/topic via geometry, algebra, and plain words. This allows the student to more simply define the new concept in more ways than one, or the way that best suits them. My only complaint is the lacking of even problem solutions. However, online websites such as Chegg or Slader suffice, or are even better, considering they come with step-by-step solutions. If you are the wondrous student, oftentimes Stewart includes the proofs of new theorems or definitions, allowing the student to internalize more deeply the concept. I especially like the historic side notes in nearly every section i.e. history of different notations, Newton & Leibiniz, Cauchy, Rolle, Lagrange, etc. The most fundamental reason this text was a success for me was the increasing difficulty and explanation of example problems after the introduction of a new topic. Much mathematical literature introduces a new concept, and usually introduces hard examples first or...

I am taking calculus next semester and wanted to find the cheapest and best quality book. I ended up ordering from textbookoverstock and it got to me before the estimated shipping date and was in excellent condition (it was rated as acceptable but it looked like it had barely been used).
Overall this has been a great experience and has saved me $100+
Edit: the book has flaws but overall its a good calc book. The homework is challenging but its not too bad. It was an integral (get it integral! Haha) part of my calc 1 and 2 and it was easy to get into... Stuart is the standard for calc books so it is good. Just look out for mistakes. I think during calc 1 and 2 I found 3 or 4 mistakes but nothing to extensive.
Protip: use Slader.com for help with problems and you 100% do well.
