Calculus: Single and Multivariable, 8th Edition teaches calculus in a way that promotes critical thinking to reveal solutions to mathematical problems while highlighting the practical value of mathematics. From the Calculus Consortium based at Harvard University, this leading text reinforces the conceptual understanding students require to reduce complicated problems to simple procedures. In this new edition, the authors retain their emphasis on the Rule of Four—viewing problems graphically, numerically, symbolically, and verbally—with a special focus on introducing different perspectives for students with different learning styles.

The ideal textbook for promoting active learning in a 'flipped' classroom, Calculus engages students across multiple majors by providing a variety of problems with applications from the physical sciences, economics, health, biology, engineering, and economics. Throughout the text, the Consortium brings calculus to life with current and relevant examples and numerous opportunities to master key mathematical concepts and skills. The eighth edition includes new graphing questions and visualizations powered by GeoGebra—enabling complex, multi-part questions that reinforce the Rule of Four and strengthen student comprehension.

�ber die Autorin bzw. den Autor

Deborah Hughes Hallett is Professor of Mathematics at the University of Arizona and Adjunct Professor of Public Policy at the Harvard Kennedy School. With Andrew M. Gleason at Harvard, she organized the Calculus Consortium based at Harvard, which brought together faculty from a wide variety of schools to work on undergraduate curricular issues. She is regularly consulted on the design of curricula and pedagogy for undergraduate mathematics at the national and international level and she is an author of several college level mathematics texts. In 1998 and 2002 and 2006, she was co-chair of the International Conference on the Teaching of Mathematics in Greece and Turkey, attended by several hundred faculty from about 50 countries. She has designed courses in Brunei, Colombia and Niger. She was awarded the Louise Hay Prize and elected a fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science for contributions to mathematics education. Her work has been recognized by prizes from Harvard, the University of Arizona, and as national winner MAA Award for Distinguished Teaching. Deb was also recently awarded with the 2022 AMS Award for Impact on the Teaching and Learning of Mathematics. This award is given annually to a mathematician (or group of mathematicians) who has made significant contributions of lasting value to mathematics education.
