I just bought Stewart's "Calculus: Concepts and Contexts" used for the NCSU online lectures series, "Calculus for Scientists and Engineers". This will be my first Stewart text.
this guy is a CROOK! His books are awful. Just fucking awful. He makes like a new version of the editions like after 3 or 4 years. Spivak's calculus is amazing and i think it's only on it's 4 edition.
He's too fucking swept up in making money that he forgets that what matters is what's in the book. I bought a book called "essential calculus with applications" for like 10 bucks and I used that as my text for my calculus course. Just awful.
you're joking right? You cannot be serious. There's books like spivak and courant and you say that THIS monstrosity is a masterpiece? Come on!!! It's the worst calc book i've probably ever read!
I love James Stewart's calculus book. It is intrinsically beautiful and awesome. I am looking to get a 5 on my Calculus BC exam. I own my own James Stewart calculus book and it's a masterpiece. It's very difficult to get a 5 though the only calculus class in my school is Calculus BC.
James Stewart ROCKS!! He wrote my Calc book and its an awesome book! I love songs about calculus and animated teachers, its the best way to learn! Thanks for the video!
LOL IF MY PROF DOES THAT I'M SERIOUSLY WALKING OUT OF CLASS =))

Spivak's should really be called "An Introduction to Real Analysis".

He is a pretty decent singer for a person who wrote my calculus book. Amazing little package of knowledge I might add.

This totally explains my frustrations with the book. I feel so validated.
