Section 1.4, for example, on the precise definition of the limit is an optional section. The instructor can follow an appropriate course between intuition and rigor by choosing to include or exclude optional sections and proofs.
Enough mathematical detail is presented so that the treatment is precise, but without allowing formalism to become obtrusive. I want students to share some of that excitement. With CALCULUS, Eighth Edition, Stewart conveys not only the utility of calculus to help you develop technical competence, but also gives you an appreciation for the intrinsic beauty of the subject. Newton undoubtedly experienced a sense of triumph when he made his great discoveries. In this edition, as in the first two editions, I aim to convey to the student a sense of the utility of calculus and to develop technical competence, but I also strive to give some appreciation for the intrinsic beauty of the subject. I have tried to write a book that assists students in discovering calculus - both for its practical power and its surprising beauty. EXCERPT: PREFACE - The art of teaching, Mark Van Doren said, is the art of assisting discovery.
