This Sixth Edition of Calculus continues the effort to promote
courses in which understanding and computation reinforce each
other. Calculus: Multivariable 6th Edition reflects the many voices
of users at research universities, four-year colleges, community
colleges, and secondary schools. This new edition has been
streamlined to create a flexible approach to both theory and
modeling. For instructors wishing to emphasize the connection
between calculus and other fields, the text includes a variety of
problems and examples from the physical, health, and biological
sciences, engineering and economics. In addition, new problems on
the mathematics of sustainability and new case studies on calculus
in medicine by David E. Sloane, MD have been added.
This is an undergraduate textbook on the basic aspects of
personal savings and investing with a balanced mix of mathematical
rigor and economic intuition. It uses routine financial
calculations as the motivation and basis for tools of elementary
real analysis rather than taking the latter as given. Proofs using
induction, recurrence relations and proofs by contradiction are
covered. Inequalities such as the Arithmetic-Geometric Mean
Inequality and the Cauchy-Schwarz Inequality are used. Basic topics
in probability and statistics are presented. The student is
introduced to elements of saving and investing that are of
life-long practical use. These include savings and checking
accounts, certificates of deposit, student loans, credit cards,
mortgages, buying and selling bonds, and buying and selling
stocks.
The book is self contained and accessible. The authors follow a
systematic pattern for each chapter including a variety of examples
and exercises ensuring that the student deals with realities,
rather than theoretical idealizations. It is suitable for courses
in mathematics, investing, banking, financial engineering, and
related topics.

Incisive, self-contained account of tensor analysis and the calculus of exterior differential forms, interaction between the concept of invariance and the calculus of variations. Emphasis is on analytical techniques, with large number of problems, from routine manipulative exercises to technically difficult assignments.
