Math 225: Calculus III, Spring 2009
Textbook: The text we will use is "Calculus (with Early
Transcendentals)", by James Stewart, 6th Edition. If you absolutely
must use an old edition, it is up to you to match up the homework
and sections- It can be quite an inconvenience.
Here is the publisher's website in case you want the ISBN numbers.
Look for Calculus: Early Transcendentals, 6th Edition (you may
need the ISBN if you're trying to find it used).
Why are we not using the online textbook? It has been my own
experience that you should not only have an excellent text
to learn from, but also to keep on your bookshelf.
