Calculus Book

alba_ei

I want study calculus for understand it better and get better in my class. For what book do I should start? What about these books: Spiavak, James Stewart, Apostol. Wich is better??
I already know about functions, limits and derivation but soon im going to be with integration so I want to get basics and study again those topics (limits, functions and derivates)

Wich book do you recommend?

I have used Stewart, early transcendentals and I found it to be pretty good.

I guess it depends on how deep you want to swim. In order of "shallow" to "deep": Stewart, Spivak, Apostol.

I've only read the works of Spiavak and Stewart, so I cant speak for Apostol. I do prefer Spiavak though.

I like the shallow end of the pool. We used the Stewart book. And I had "How to Ace Calculus" for "water-wings".

Apostol is a bit unconventional in that he introduces integration before limits and differentiation, and in a way that most people are not used to. But if that doesn't bother you, along with the Definition-Theorem-Proof format, then Apostol is a pretty good choice to learn calculus.

Haven't seen the other books.
