We're currently using Stewart's in my class, and I'm not at all happy with it. I actually liked Stewart's for single variable, but the multivariable volume feels like it rushes over all the concepts and provides very little insight, and the problems are WAY too easy. They are useless for practice; they require no thought: you've done one, you've done them all.
Anyone know of any good Multivariable Calc book with plenty good examples? -- I'm not looking for anything where every problem is crazy-hard, just challenging enough to get a deeper understanding of the concepts in time for exams.
I need to seriously rase my marks this semester. Due to health problems I'm convinced I did very poorly on my first midterm (haven't gotten our marks back yet), so I have to get some serious marks going on the remaining tests or I'm screwed.
I also prefer a "drier" or succinct style of textbook, with more examples than long winded paragraphs that you have to read 10 times.
Are these any good?
thanks
