the language of change Cohen, David W. creator Henle, James M. Sudbury, Mass Jones and Bartlett Publishers c2005 xvii, 988 p. : ill. (some col.) ; 29 cm. "Calculus: the Language of Change is an innovative new introductory textbook that blends traditional and reform approaches with a focus on understanding calculus as its own language. With accessible writing and presentation, the book allows students to gradually understand the language - first by reviewing vocabulary, and then quickly moving to present calculus conceptually, computationally, and theoretically. Within this framework, derivatives and integrals are developed side by side, coverage of theory is offered at various levels, and computing devices are incorporated generically. The text features seamless integration between chapters and numerous cross-disciplinary examples and applications, which gives instructors flexibility for shaping their course. A full range of student and instructor resources make Calculus: The Language of Change an outstanding course package."--BK JACKET. David W. Cohen and James M. Henle. Includes index.
