Can you recommend me a good textbook for Calculus III?

AI Thread Summary
For a solid textbook recommendation for Calculus III (Multivariable Calculus) focused on practice problems rather than theory, several options are discussed. While Stewart's textbook is mentioned, it is noted that the final chapter lacks clarity, prompting the search for alternatives. "Calculus" by Larson and Edwards is suggested, with the 8th edition mentioned, though the latest is the 10th. Users appreciate its approach, despite its limitation to three dimensions, which can be generalized. The conversation highlights the importance of having ample practice problems for topics like multiple integrals, jacobians, gradients, and partial derivatives, indicating a preference for textbooks that emphasize problem-solving skills.

I want a good textbook for Calculus III (Multivariable Calculus) that has lots of practice problems and less theoretical problems. The textbook must have lots of practice problems for multiple integrals, finding areas, volumes using multiple integrals, finding jacobians, gradients, partial derivatives, etc. Please tell me the name of the textbook, author, edition, etc.

Wouldn't Stewart work?

Just disregard the final chapter--it's not very well explained.
 
Is there any other good textbook besides Stewart?
 
What have you been using for Calc I & II? Does it not include any multivariable calculus?
 
My Calculus I & II textbook doesn't have Calculus III at all.
 
I like "Calculus" by Larson and Edwards. I have the 8th edition, but they're up to 10 now.
I didn't like how (at least in my edition) they don't go above 3 dimensions, but it's pretty evident how to generalize stuff.
 

Thread 'Learn Python: Top Book Recommendations for Beginners'

I'm looking at a book called python crash course for beginners (eric mathes), does anyone have experience of using this book or any other book that you would recommend for learning python if not that, is there a specific course you'd suggest that isn't in book form? I'm completely new to programming if it helps. So i need a gameplan for learning it quite quickly for my undergrad studies
