Book Overview

This text provides a strong foundation to precalculus that focuses on a small number of key topics thereby emphasising depth of understanding rather than breath of coverage. It provides a solid way to motivate concepts and develop critical thinking skills. The new fourth edition emphasises functions as models of change. It contains superior exercises and applications that motivate the concepts students can use to fully grasp precalculus.

Functions Modeling Change:a preparation for calculus

This book arrived promptly, was the correct ISBN number, and was in very good condition. I was very pleased with this seller.

Excelent Service

I've got a book I need with a reasonable price and good delivery! Thank you!

Wonderful precalculus deep inside the functions and modeling

I really have difficulties to understand some reviewers given one star for such a wonderfull book. If you read this book before Uni, you will have a stable ground for calculus. All frequently used functions and their practical usage as modelling tools are lucidly explained. I finally know what hyperbolic functions are, I finally know how the path from given data to an appropriate model works. I finally know how can I practically sketch seemingly complex but simple functions. It's strength based on model oriented approach to functions. This has pratical value for all candidate engineers... Without any doubt I'll give five stars to acknowledge the authors.

Book purchase

Smooth transaction. Book delivered in condition and time as promised. Thank you!

Great for understanding functions

Great book! It is especially good for understanding what different functions do, and how. This is very important for understanding calculus. Great examples, always linking functions with things in real life.
