Calculus by Howard Anton

The morning sun on the horizon is both a symbol of renewal and a reminder of the past - it signals the dawn of a new day, a new vitality, and new experiences, yet it reminds us that our predecessors have witnessed their own morning suns and that we are recipients of their innovations and experiences. So it is natural that we have chosen the morning sun for the cover of this text, since it holds the promise of a bold, fresh approach in this new edition that does not ignore the best qualities of the earlier editions. Howard Anton

Howard Anton graduated with a B.A. His M.A. is from Lehigh University. His Ph.D. is from the University of Illinois. All of my degrees are in mathematics from the Polytechnic Institute of Brooklyn. In the early 1960s, he worked at Cape Canaveral on the human space program.

He joined Drexel University in Philadelphia as a research professor of mathematics in 1968, where he taught and conducted mathematical research for the next 15 years. He retired from Drexel as a Professor Emeritus of Mathematics in 1983 to pursue a full-time career as a mathematical textbook author. His novels are currently available in over 150 languages, including Spanish, Arabic, Portuguese, French, German, Chinese, Japanese, Hebrew, Italian, and Indonesian. The Textbook Writers Association honored him with a Textbook Excellence Award in 1994, and the McGuffey Award in 2011 for his Elementary Linear Algebra volume.

Dr. Anton has served on the Board of Governors of the Mathematical Association of America's EPADEL section, as well as guiding the formation of its Student Branches. Dr. Anton relaxes by traveling and taking photographs.
