Vector Calculus uses the language and notation of vectors and matrices to help you start the transition from first-year calculus to more advanced technical math. Its readable narrative, numerous figures, strong examples and exercise sets help foster a solid grasp of the concepts. An appropriate level of rigor collects most of the technical derivations at the ends of sections; many proofs are available for reference but are positioned in a way that does not disrupt the flow of main ideas. The 5th Edition offers clarifications, new examples and new exercises throughout. For the first time, this book is now available as a Pearson eText that includes interactive GeoGebra applets. Background in single-variable calculus is assumed.
