Textbook Versions

The textbook used in this course is Calculus: Early Transcendentals (2nd Edition), by Jon Rogawski. Please note that there is another version of this book called simply Calculus (also known as Calculus: Late Transcendentals). This book is the wrong book and does not meet our requirements. The correct book says "Early Transcendentals" in a golden band along the right side of the book. You must acquire the correct book for this course.

This is what the correct book looks like: Calculus: Early Transcendentals
