"I want a text that stresses the numerical and graphical as well as the algebraic approach to calculus. Stewart's approach contains the most important aspects of that approach-rule of four, use of projects, use of technology, focus on topics of value to clients, development of conceptual understanding over formalism, writing." "The text is well-informed about the use of calculus and makes good use of realistic settings, not just artificially manufactured information." The organization and presentation is designed to develop perspective, conceptual understanding and ability to use the concepts and methods to actually solve problems." "I like the author's approach very combines the best features of both, making it possible to present a better course. The problems are the right type to engage students in thinking about the concepts and to develop skills and ability to apply the calculus. The book is well organized, the material is clearly presented, and there is an abundance of problems of varying levels. "Stewart does a good job in extracting the best parts from calculus reform efforts and traditional approaches. "The single feature of this book that I like the most is the breadth in the exercises." The second item is the paring down of the calculus material to an amount that.allows me enough room to add the various exploratory activities that I have my classes use." I can embellish, add, emphasize or not easily.
The first is the concise language that Stewart uses.
"I have appreciated two main things from this textbook.
MULTIVARIABLE CALCULUS CONCEPTS AND CONTEXTS SERIES
Stewart was the author of a best-selling calculus textbook series published by Cengage Learning, including CALCULUS, CALCULUS: EARLY TRANSCENDENTALS, and CALCULUS: CONCEPTS AND CONTEXTS, as well as a series of precalculus texts. Stewart was most recently Professor of Mathematics at McMaster University, and his research field was harmonic analysis. He did research at the University of London and was influenced by the famous mathematician George Polya at Stanford University.

The Multivariable Calculus edition contains chapters 11-18 of the full text, and is intended to serve as a single-semester text.The late James Stewart received his M.S. Each title is just one component in a comprehensive calculus course program that carefully integrates and coordinates print, media, and technology products for successful teaching and learning. CALCULUS: CONCEPTS AND CONTEXTS is highly regarded because this text offers a balance of theory and conceptual work to satisfy more progressive programs as well as those who are more comfortable teaching in a more traditional fashion. Stewart's Multivariable CALCULUS: CONCEPTS AND CONTEXTS, FOURTH EDITION offers a streamlined approach to teaching calculus, focusing on major concepts and supporting those with precise definitions, patient explanations, and carefully graded problems.
