Summary: Excellent Intro to Multivariable...
Review: This is one of the best introductory texts in multivariable calculus that I have seen in a long time. It was a required text and essentially, if you have this book, it is unnecessary to even go to class. All of the examples are clear and concise and combined with the excellent study guide, one can easily learn multivariable calculus from this book without even taking a course.

Summary: Excellent and interesting
Review: This textbook is the best of its kind, in my opinion. Stewart presents difficult concepts in the clearest possible way. Fully-explained examples, excellent graphics, and interesting presentations. After each section, you are left feeling that you've learned an exciting new concept. I fully enjoyed the subject. I would have given it five stars, but I did have a little difficulty with the chapter on Power Series. Other than that, I thought the book was perfect.
