Business Mathematics
Contemporary Business Mathematics with Canadian Applications, 12th edition
Hummelbrunner, Halliday, Hassanlou
For business mathematics courses.
Contemporary Business Mathematics with Canadian Applications is a teaching text using problem-identification and problem-solving approaches. The systematic and sequential development of the material is illustrated by examples that show a step-by-step approach to solving the problem. The detailed solutions are presented in a visually clear and colorful layout that allows learners to monitor their own progress in the classroom or in independent study.
Mathematics for Business
Introductory Mathematical Analysis for Business, Economics, and the Life and Social Sciences, 14th edition
Haeussler, Paul, Wood
Ideal for one- or two-semester or two- or three-quarter courses covering topics in college algebra, finite mathematics, and calculus for students in business, economics, and the life and social sciences.
This text establishes a strong algebraic foundation that sets this text apart from other applied mathematics texts, paving the way for students to solve real-world problems that use calculus. Emphasis on developing algebraic skills is extended to the exercises–including both drill problems and applications.
Calculus
Calculus: A Complete Course, 10th edition
Adams, Essex
For courses in Calculus.
Proven in North America and abroad, this classic text has earned a reputation for excellent accuracy and mathematical rigour. It remains the only mainstream textbook that covers sufficient conditions for maxima and minima in higher dimensions. In the classical curriculum, differentials are defined as linear combinations of other differentials. But then later they are also asserted to be products of differentials, without explanation. This edition clarifies, connecting these new objects as they arise. Metrics are a rather fuzzy topic in most texts, leaving the questions that arc length implies hanging. The exploration of these questions leads to new gateway topics, including spherical geometry (as in navigation), and special relativity, which both emerge rather effortlessly once the metric concept is properly in place.
Technical Mathematics
Basic Technical Mathematics with Calculus, SI Version, 11th edition
Washington, Evans, Boué, Martin
For courses in introductory technical math. The student-friendly, acclaimed best seller in technical math.
This tried-and-true text from Allyn Washington builds on the author's highly regarded approach to technical math, while enhancing its pedagogy with full-colour figures and boxes that warn students of Common Errors. Appropriate for a two- to three-semester course, Basic Technical Mathematics with Calculus shows how algebra, trigonometry and basic calculus are used on the job. The SI Version is enhanced with a mix of Canadian and global examples, a reorganized Statistics chapter and updated notation that reflects standard engineering practice in industry.
Linear Algebra
Introduction to Linear Algebra for Science and Engineering, 3rd edition
Norman, Wolczuk
For courses in Linear Algebra.
Norman/Wolczuk’s An Introduction to Linear Algebra for Science and Engineering has been widely respected for its unique approach, which helps students understand and apply theory and concepts by combining theory with computations and slowly bringing students to the difficult abstract concepts. This approach includes an early treatment of vector spaces and complex topics in a simpler, geometric context. An Introduction to Linear Algebra for Science and Engineering promotes advanced thinking and understanding by encouraging students to make connections between previously learned and new concepts and demonstrates the importance of each topic through applications.
Trade Mathematics
Mathematics for the Trades: A Guided Approach
Carman, Saunders, Mills
For Basic Math, Math for the Trades, Occupational Math, and similar basic math skills courses offered by trade or technical departments at the undergraduate/graduate level.
Mathematics for the Trades: A Guided Approach provides the practical mathematics skills needed in a wide variety of trade and technical areas, including electronics, auto mechanics, construction trades, air conditioning, machine technology, metal fabrication, welding, drafting, and many other occupations. It is especially intended for students who have a poor math background and for adults who have been out of school for a time. Many of these students have had little success in mathematics, some openly fear it, and all need a direct, practical approach that emphasizes careful, complete explanations and actual on-the-job applications. This book provides practical help with real math, beginning at each student’s level of ability.
Applied Calculus
Thomas' Calculus, 15th edition
Hass, Heil, Bogacki, Weir
For 3-semester or 4-quarter courses in Calculus for students majoring in mathematics, engineering or science.
Thomas' Calculus goes beyond memorizing formulas and routine procedures to help students develop deeper understanding. It guides students to a level of mathematical proficiency and maturity needed for the course, with support for those who require it through its balance of clear and intuitive explanations, current applications and generalized concepts. The 15th Edition meets the needs of students with increasingly varied levels of readiness for the calculus sequence. This revision also adds exercises, revises figures and narrative for clarity, and updates many applications with modern topics.
