A full review of college algebra topics is integrated with a rigorous presentation of concepts that form the foundation of calculus, including a detailed coverage of trigonometry. Each chapter provides historical context, technology notes, and applications. Updates to the third edition include a more streamlined table of contents, new chapters (Chapter 4: Working with Functions and Chapter 13: An Introduction to Limits, Continuity, and the Derivative), and more robust content.
