Incredible Book

I used this book for my Multivariable Calculus course last semester and I truly loved the book. This book has plenty of examples in each chapter and it also has many problems at the end of each section. The sections are well explained and if you are dedicated, I am sure that you will find this book terrific. I am using a Edwards/Penney's book for my Differential Equations course this semester and the authors are fantastic! The only problem of this book is its cover: I am not a big fan of paperback; I would definitely prefer a hardcover version of this book.

Very decent textbook

I find this to be an excellent textbook. It might be lacking in terms of theoretical analysis and proof but for students who are looking to learn how to do the questions, it is an excellent source. The questions gradually increase in difficulty and it is easy to develop a certain level of ease with the subject of multivariable calculus, which is perhaps not always intuitive or obvious.

Explains the subjects in great ease

I like this book. I used it in a course that I gave after years of my college years, yet it reminded me the subject without getting into details. It did not require any other book. The problems are also very nice.
