MyMathLab access is not included with this ISBN. Separate versions are available, covering just Single Variable topics (contains Chapters 1-11 and Multivariable topics (contains Chapters 11-16). This is the complete text, which contains Chapters 1-16. This significant revision features more examples, more mid-level exercises, more figures, and improved conceptual flow. Thomas offers the right mix of basic, conceptual, and challenging exercises, along with meaningful applications. Thomas' Calculus, Twelfth Edition, helps your students successfully generalize and apply the key ideas of calculus through clear and precise explanations, clean design, thoughtfully chosen examples, and superior exercise sets. Today's students have been raised on immediacy and the desire for relevance, and they come to calculus with varied mathematical backgrounds. Calculus hasn't changed, but your students have. This text is designed for a three-semester or four-quarter calculus course (math, engineering, and science majors). Every effort has been made to insure that all content in the new edition reinforces thinking and encourages deep understanding of the material. The ambition of Thomas 11e is to teach the ideas of Calculus so that students will be able to apply them in new and novel ways, first in the exercises but ultimately in their careers. The authors have also excised extraneous information in general and have made the technology much more transparent.
Many of the examples have been trimmed of distractions and rewritten with a clear focus on the main ideas. In addition, the table of contents has been refined to match the standard syllabus. The exercises develop this theme as a pivot point between the lecture in class, and the understanding that comes with applying the ideas of Calculus. The book's theme is that Calculus is about thinking one cannot memorize it all. For the 11th edition, the authors have added exercises cut in the 10th edition, as well as, going back to the classic 5th and 6th editions for additional exercises and examples. The new edition of Thomas is a return to what Thomas has always been: the book with the best exercises.
