A review by jgauthier
Calculus: Early Transcendentals by James Stewart
4.0
Reusing this for Calc III.

I read this textbook for my AP Calculus BC class. It wasn't too dry, fortunately, and used lots of pictures / tables / charts as reading aids. Many of the exercises included had to do with interesting applications in other areas of math, physics, and engineering — much more fun than the standard "sliding-ladder" problem types that showed up in previous courses. I just wish the authors would have skipped steps less often in the examples.
