Calculus: Understanding Its Concepts and Methods is a revolutionary CD-based calculus textbook that represents a dramatic change in the teaching and learning of calculus. It opens up a mathematical adventure with explanations, examples, explorations, problems, and self-tests that present calculus concepts and methods. Calculus: Understanding Its Concepts and Methods contains the information normally taught in a three-semester calculus sequence. Each chapter presents both basic concepts and computational details, and supplements explanations with tools, popup hints and information, examples, and explorations. Many examples have animated mathematics that encourage student exploration, and some include step-by-step discussions of specific problem solutions. Others are interactive, so students can experiment by defining their own functions and parameters. The explorations challenge students to write detailed solutions to open-ended problems; some model solutions are included.
