Stewart retains the focus on problem solving and the pedagogical system that has made the book a favorite of students and instructors in a wide variety of colleges and universities throughout the world.

In this Fifth Edition, he has made hundreds of small improvements: new examples, additional steps in existing examples, updating of data in existing examples and exercises, new phrases and margin notes to clarify the exposition, references to other sources and web sites, redrawn art, and references to the TEC CD (Tools for Enriching Calculus).

These refinements ensure that students and instructors have the best materials available.

The number of pages in the book, however, remains unchanged from the 4th edition.

Further support for students and instructors is now available through a vast array of supplementary material..
