Calculus for the Management, Life and Social Sciences (Germanic Studies in America; 64)

This text introduces business, biology, allied health, behavioural, and social science students to the basic concepts and techniques of calculus. Intended for use in a one-semester course, it implements an applications-oriented apporach. Coverage of topics such as trigonometric and curve sketching are included but left as optional to make the text more flexible. A brief algebra review is provided in Chapter 0: a more complete review is in the appendix.
