| Publisher Description: CALCULUS I WITH PRECALCULUS, brings you up to speed algebraically within precalculus and transition into calculus. The Larson Calculus program has been widely praised by a generation of students and professors for its solid and effective pedagogy that addresses the needs of a broad range of teaching and learning styles and environments. Each title is just one component in a comprehensive calculus course program that carefully integrates and coordinates print, media, and technology products for successful teaching and learning. One primary objective guided the authors in writing this book: to develop precise, readable materials for students that clearly define and demonstrate concepts and rules of calculus. |
