Anton's Calculus: Early Transcendentals 12th edition provides a rigorous and intuitive exploration of calculus developed by an expert team of mathematicians. It strives to increase student comprehension and conceptual understanding through a balance between rigor and clarity of explanations; sound mathematics; and excellent exercises, applications, and examples. Anton pedagogically approaches Calculus through the Rule of Four, presenting concepts from the verbal, algebraic, visual, and numerical points of view. This edition makes extensive use of modern computer graphics to clarify concepts and to develop the student's ability to visualize mathematical objects, particularly those in 3-dimensional space. The contents are designed with a built-in flexibility and the order of many topics can be permuted freely to accommodate each instructor's specific needs. The presentation of prose in the text of some chapters has been tightened to enhance clarity and student understanding.
