Revised edition
Synopsis
The present course on calculus of several variables is meant as a text, either for one semester following A First Course in Calculus, or for a year if the calculus sequence is so structured. For a one-semester course, no matter what, one should cover the first four chapters, up to the law of conservation of energy, which provides a beautiful application of the chain rule in a physical context, and ties up the mathematics of this course with standard material from courses on physics. Then there are roughly two possibilities: One is to cover Chapters V and VI on maxima and minima, quadratic forms, critical points, and Taylor's formula. One can then finish with Chapter IX on double integration to round off the one-term course. The other is to go into curve integrals, double integration, and Green's theorem, that is Chapters VII, VIII, IX, and X, §1. This forms a coherent whole., This new, revised edition covers all of the basic topics in calculus of several variables, including vectors, curves, functions of several variables, gradient, tangent plane, maxima and minima, potential functions, curve integrals, Green's theorem, multiple integrals, surface integrals, Stokes' theorem, and the inverse mapping theorem and its consequences. It includes many completely worked-out problems., This is a new, revised edition of this widely known text. All of the basic topics in calculus of several variables are covered. The presentation is self-contained, assuming only a knowledge of basic calculus in one variable. Many completely worked-out problems have been included.

Item description from the seller
Seller feedback (376)
- 8***n (108)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseWow! I had hoped for a new set - not really - it's too long ago. But this used set looked branch new. The seller packaged it perfectly including a list of cards supplied. Everything looked pristine. What a lovely surprise! The care this seller took was amazing. It was as described and a reasonable value given the age of the original game.
- t***a (754)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseItem was just as described. The packaging was great, the shipping was excellent and the value was perfect. I couldn't have asked for better. I give this seller 5 Stars.
- a***6 (51)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseI usually don't leave feedback. However, I need to take this opportunity to say "thank you" to the seller, VorpalTurtle, for their professionalism and promptness. The item is shipped super fast, almost seconds after I placed the order, and very well packaged with multiple layers of bubble wrap. Please take a look at the attached picture. The item just arrived with the new game smell :) Thank you, VorpalTurtle. You made my day~!STAR WARS Top Trumps Card Game, New In Sealed Collector's Tin (#297008781233)
