Briggs/Cochran is the most successful new calculus series published in the last two decades. The authors’ years of teaching experience resulted in a text that reflects how students generally use a textbook: they start in the exercises and refer back to the narrative for help as needed. The text therefore builds from a foundation of meticulously crafted exercise sets, then draws students into the narrative through writing that reflects the voice of the instructor, examples that are stepped out and thoughtfully annotated, and figures that are designed to teach rather than simply supplement the narrative. The authors appeal to students’ geometric intuition to introduce fundamental concepts, laying a foundation for the rigorous development that follows.
* This book is an expanded version of Calculus by the same authors, with an entire chapter devoted to differential equations, additional sections on other topics, and additional exercises in most sections. See the “Features” section for more details.

Topics are introduced through concrete examples, geometric arguments, applications, and analogies rather than through abstract arguments. The authors appeal to students’ intuition and geometric instincts to make calculus natural and believable.
Figures are designed to help today’s visually oriented learners. They are conceived to convey important ideas and facilitate learning, annotated to lead students through the key ideas, and rendered using the latest software for unmatched clarity and precision.
Comprehensive exercise sets provide for a variety of student needs and are consistently structured and labeled to facilitate the creation of homework assignments by inspection.
Review Questions check that students have a general conceptual understanding of the essential ideas from the section.
Basic Skills exercises are linked to examples in the section so students get off to a good start with homework.
Further Explorations exercises extend students’ abilities beyond the basics.
Applications present practical and novel applications and models that use the ideas presented in the section.
Additional Exercises challenge students to stretch their understanding by working through abstract exercises and proofs.
Examples are plentiful and stepped out in detail. Within examples, each step is annotated to help students understand what took place in that step.
Quick Check exercises punctuate the narrative at key points to test understanding of basic ideas and encourage students to read with pencil in hand.
The MyMathLab course for the text features the following:
More than 7,000 assignable exercises provide you with the options you need to meet the needs of students. Most exercises can be algorithmically regenerated for unlimited practice.
Learning aids include guided exercises, additional examples, and tutorial videos. You control how much help your students can get and when.
700 Interactive Figures in the eBook can be manipulated to shed light on key concepts. The figures are also ideal for in-class demonstrations.
Interactive Figure Exercises provide a way for you make the most of the Interactive Figures by including them in homework assignments.
A “Getting Ready for Calculus” chapter, with built-in diagnostic tests, identifies each student’s gaps in skills and provides individual remediation directly to those skills that are lacking.
Ready-to-Go Courses designed by experienced instructors to minimize the start-up time for new MyMathLab users.
Guided Projects, available for each chapter, require students to carry out extended calculations (e.g., finding the arc length of an ellipse), derive physical models (e.g., Kepler’s Laws), or explore related topics (e.g., numerical integration). The “guided” nature of the projects provides scaffolding to help students tackle these more involved problems.
The Instructor’s Resource Guide and Test Bank provides a wealth of instructional resources including Guided Projects, Lecture Support Notes with Key Concepts, Quick Quizzes for each section in the text, Chapter Reviews, Chapter Test Banks, Tips and Help for Interactive Figures, and Student Study Cards.
This book is an expanded version of Calculus by the same authors. It contains an entire chapter devoted to differential equations and additional sections on other topics (Newton’s method, surface area of solids of revolution, and hyperbolic functions). Most sections also contain additional exercises, many of them mid-level skills exercises.
