DESCRIPTION:
Ostebee and Zorn provide concrete strategies that help students understand and master concepts in calculus. This user-friendly text continues to help students interact with the main calculus objects (functions, derivatives, integrals, etc.) not only symbolically but also, where appropriate, graphically and numerically. Ostebee/Zorn strikes an appropriate balance among these points of view, without overemphasizing any of them. New exercises, examples, and much more have added tremendously to this great book.

Horrible text due to the following reasons:* authors use "convince yourself" too many times without showing adequate amount of proofs (typical method of "convincing" students in other texts).
