Hello, currently I am a high school senior who will be going to college in the fall and since my school ends in may and college starts in mid-August. I am planning on self-studying calculus 3, so I can test out of it and go straight into partial differential equations.
The textbooks that the colleges that I applied to use are the CALCULUS — Early Transcendentals, Stewart, Brooks/Cole. books. From other posts I was able to infer that this textbook is mediocre at best, is this true? what about Vector Calculus by Peter Baxandall and Hans Liebeck?
Also at the moment, I am using Larson calculus textbook for my BC class and for EM I am using Fundamentals of Physics by David Halliday.
I would like to use a textbook that focuses less on computations and more on theory and is full of rigor because I actually wish to learn and not just waste my time doing plug and chuck into the formula.
Thanks for the help!
