Preface

A great discovery solves a great problem but there is a grain of discovery in the
solution of any problem. Your problem may be modest; but if it challenges your
curiosity and brings into play your inventive faculties, and if you solve it by your
own means, you may experience the tension and enjoy the triumph of discovery.
G E O R G E P O L Y A
The art of teaching, Mark Van Doren said, is the art of assisting discovery. I have tried to
write a book that assists students in discovering calculus—both for its practical power and
its surprising beauty. In this edition, as in the first six editions, I aim to convey to the student
a sense of the utility of calculus and develop technical competence, but I also strive
to give some appreciation for the intrinsic beauty of the subject. Newton undoubtedly
experienced a sense of triumph when he made his great discoveries. I want students to
share some of that excitement.
The emphasis is on understanding concepts. I think that nearly everybody agrees that
this should be the primary goal of calculus instruction. In fact, the impetus for the current
calculus reform movement came from the Tulane Conference in 1986, which formulated
as their first recommendation:
Focus on conceptual understanding.
I have tried to implement this goal through the Rule of Three: “Topics should be presented
geometrically, numerically, and algebraically.” Visualization, numerical and graphical experimentation,
and other approaches have changed how we teach conceptual reasoning in fundamental
ways. The Rule of Three has been expanded to become the Rule of Four by
emphasizing the verbal, or descriptive, point of view as well.
In writing the seventh edition my premise has been that it is possible to achieve conceptual
understanding and still retain the best traditions of traditional calculus. The book
contains elements of reform, but within the context of a traditional curriculum.
I have written several other calculus textbooks that might be preferable for some instructors.
Most of them also come in single variable and multivariable versions.
■ Calculus, Seventh Edition, Hybrid Version, is similar to the present textbook in
content and coverage except that all end-of-section exercises are available only in
Enhanced WebAssign. The printed text includes all end-of-chapter review material.
■ Calculus: Early Transcendentals, Seventh Edition, is similar to the present textbook
except that the exponential, logarithmic, and inverse trigonometric functions are covered
in the first semester.

Alternative Versions

xii PREFACE
■ Calculus: Early Transcendentals, Seventh Edition, Hybrid Version, is similar to Calculus:
Early Transcendentals, Seventh Edition, in content and coverage except that all
end-of-section exercises are available only in Enhanced WebAssign. The printed text
includes all end-of-chapter review material.
■ Essential Calculus is a much briefer book (800 pages), though it contains almost all
of the topics in Calculus, Seventh Edition. The relative brevity is achieved through
briefer exposition of some topics and putting some features on the website.
■ Essential Calculus: Early Transcendentals resembles Essential Calculus, but the
exponential, logarithmic, and inverse trigonometric functions are covered in Chapter 3.
■ Calculus: Concepts and Contexts, Fourth Edition, emphasizes conceptual understanding
even more strongly than this book. The coverage of topics is not encyclopedic
and the material on transcendental functions and on parametric equations is woven
throughout the book instead of being treated in separate chapters.
■ Calculus: Early Vectors introduces vectors and vector functions in the first semester
and integrates them throughout the book. It is suitable for students taking Engineering
and Physics courses concurrently with calculus.
■ Brief Applied Calculus is intended for students in business, the social sciences, and
the life sciences.
The changes have resulted from talking with my colleagues and students at the University
of Toronto and from reading journals, as well as suggestions from users and reviewers.
Here are some of the many improvements that I’ve incorporated into this edition:
■ Some material has been rewritten for greater clarity or for better motivation. See, for
instance, the introduction to maximum and minimum values on page 198, the introduction
to series on page 727, and the motivation for the cross product on page 832.
■ New examples have been added (see Example 4 on page 1045 for instance). And the
solutions to some of the existing examples have been amplified. A case in point: I
added details to the solution of Example 1.6.11 because when I taught Section 1.6
from the sixth edition I realized that students need more guidance when setting up
inequalities for the Squeeze Theorem.
■ Chapter 1, Functions and Limits, consists of most of the material from Chapters 1
and 2 of the sixth edition. The section on Graphing Calculators and Computers is
now Appendix G.
■ The art program has been revamped: New figures have been incorporated and a substantial
percentage of the existing figures have been redrawn.
■ The data in examples and exercises have been updated to be more timely.
■ Three new projects have been added: The Gini Index (page 351) explores how to
measure income distribution among inhabitants of a given country and is a nice application
of areas between curves. (I thank Klaus Volpert for suggesting this project.)
Families of Implicit Curves (page 163) investigates the changing shapes of implicitly
defined curves as parameters in a family are varied. Families of Polar Curves (page
688) exhibits the fascinating shapes of polar curves and how they evolve within a
family.

What’s New in the Seventh Edition?
PREFACE xiii
■ The section on the surface area of the graph of a function of two variables has been
restored as Section 15.6 for the convenience of instructors who like to teach it after
double integrals, though the full treatment of surface area remains in Chapter 16.
■ I continue to seek out examples of how calculus applies to so many aspects of the
real world. On page 933 you will see beautiful images of the earth’s magnetic field
strength and its second vertical derivative as calculated from Laplace’s equation. I
thank Roger Watson for bringing to my attention how this is used in geophysics and
mineral exploration.
■ More than 25% of the exercises are new. Here are some of my favorites: 2.2.13–14,
2.4.56, 2.5.67, 2.6.53–56, 2.7.22, 3.3.70, 3.4.43, 4.2.51–53, 5.4.30, 6.3.58, 11.2.49–50,
11.10.71–72, 12.1.44, 12.4.43–44, and Problems 4, 5, and 8 on pages 861–62.
