Résumé :

This vector calculus textbook helps students gain a solid, intuitive understanding of this important subject. The book's careful contemporary balance between theory, application and historical development, provides readers with insights into how mathematics progresses and is in turn influenced by the natural world. The new edition offers a contemporary design, an increased number of practice exercises and content changes based on reviewer feedback, giving this classic text a modern appeal.

Now in its sixth edition, this textbook has been completely redesigned and improved, and yet retains and improves on the carefuk balance between theory, applications, optional material and historical notes that were present in earlier editions. The sixth?edition of Marsden and Tromba's Vector Calculus is an essential resource for students new to the subject.
