These? https://www.amazon.com/dp/4871878384/?tag=pfamazon01-20 & https://www.amazon.com/dp/487187835X/?tag=pfamazon01-20I don't know, whether there's an English translation of the great intro-calculus books by Richard Courant, but if so, I'd recommend them strongly!
I want a book that isn't too wordy, explains things concisely, and covers single-variable and multi-variable calculus. I regret that I forgot so much of the stuff I learned in Calculus III and IV (especially the important theorems I learned but forgot in the latter), and now I want to review it over again. If anyone is able to help me with this, it would be much appreciated. Thank you.
I was able to peruse all the editions of Thomas starting from 3 to 11th. There may be more editions now. The 3rd edition of Thomas is much different book then the later editions. I believe the 4th and 5th edition are similar, but not the same. I would definitely go for the 3rd edition. Then supplement it with problem sets from another source. Problem sets can be found for free online. However, the multivariable material in the 3rd edition may be a bit harder to understand then more modern dumb down books.there are three concepts in one variable calculus, continuity, differentiability, and integrability. Then there are several basic theorems: intermediate value theorem (basic property of continuity), existence of maxima and minima of continuous functions on closed bounded intervals, and mean value theorem. the key theorem relating these concepts is the fundamental theorem of calculus, showing how to compute integrals by anti differentiation. There is also the inverse function theorem, largely a corollary of the intermediate value theorem.
In several variable calculus the same three concepts occur. Basic theorems are the inverse function theorem, the fubini theorem (reducing an integral of several variables down to a sequence of one variable integrals), and the stokes theorem, (generalizing the fundamental theorem of calculus).
Other common topics include summability of infinite series, and solvability of simple differential equations, especially linear ones with constant coefficients. Then there are applications of these ideas to computing volumes, and physical concepts like work. One good book is an old version of the book of George B. Thomas, formerly available used for a couple of dollars. Omiword, those old books are now hundreds of dollars. It seems to be understood that the newer books with names like Finney, Haas, Weir, Giordano, on them are greatly inferior. But maybe the alternate 9th edition with just Finney on it is ok.

But I suggest going to a library for an older edition from the 50's or 60's.
