This classic text continues to provide a mathematical foundation for students in business, economics, and the life and social sciences. Abundant applications cover such diverse areas as business, economics, biology, medicine, sociology, psychology, ecology, statistics, earth science, and archaeology. Its depth and completeness of coverage enables instructors to tailor their courses to students’ needs. The authors frequently employ novel derivations that are not widespread in other books at this level. The Twelfth Edition has been updated to make the text even more student-friendly and easy to understand.
Each chapter concludes with a Review and a Mathematical Snapshot.
