He has taught a wide variety of mathematics courses over a 20-year career, receiving 5 teaching awards in that time. Bernard authored a software package for algebra, trigonometry, and precalculus; the Student's Guide and Solutions Manual and the Instructor's Guide and Solutions Manual for Using and Understanding Mathematics by Briggs and Bennett; and the Instructor's Resource Guide and Test Bank for Calculus and Calculus: Early Transcendentals by Briggs, Cochran and Gillett. Bernard is also an avid rock climber and has published 4 climbing guides for the mountains in and surrounding Rocky Mountain National Park.
Eric Schulz has been teaching mathematics at Walla Walla Community College since 1989 and began his work with Mathematica in 1992. He has an undergraduate degree in mathematics from Seattle Pacific University and a graduate degree in mathematics from the University of Washington. Eric loves working with students and is passionate about their success. His interest in innovative and effective uses of technology in teaching mathematics has remained strong throughout his career. He is the developer of the Basic Math Assistant, Classroom Assistant, and Writing Assistant palettes that ship in Mathematica worldwide. He is an author on multiple textbooks: Calculus and Calculus: Early Transcendentals with Briggs, Cochran and Gillett, and Precalculus with Sachs and Briggs, where he writes, codes and creates dynamic eTexts combining narrative, videos and Interactive Figures using Mathematica and CDF technology.
For 3- to 4-semester courses covering single-variable and multivariable calculus, taken by students of mathematics, engineering, natural sciences, or economics.
The most successful new calculus text in the last two decades
The much-anticipated 3rd Edition of Briggs’ Calculus Series retains its hallmark features while introducing important advances and refinements. Briggs, Cochran, Gillett, and Schulz build from a foundation of meticulously crafted exercise sets, then draw students into the narrative through writing that reflects the voice of the instructor. Examples are stepped out and thoughtfully annotated, and figures are designed to teach rather than simply supplement the narrative. The groundbreaking eBook contains approximately 700 Interactive Figures that can be manipulated to shed light on key concepts.
For the 3rd Edition, the authors synthesized feedback on the text and MyLab™ Math content from over 140 instructors and an Engineering Review Panel. This thorough and extensive review process, paired with the authors’ own teaching experiences, helped create a text that was designed for today’s calculus instructors and students.

- Figures have been carefully crafted and reviewed. Whenever possible, the authors let the figures communicate essential ideas with annotations that echo an instructor's voice.
- Annotated Examples:
- Worked-out examples have annotations in blue type to guide students through the process of a solution and to emphasize that each step in a mathematical argument is rigorously justified.
- These annotations echo how instructors talk through examples in lecture. They also help students who may struggle with the algebra and trigonometry steps in the solution process.
- Quick Check questions encourage students to do the calculus as they are reading about it. These questions resemble the kinds of questions instructors pose in class.
- The exercise sets are a major focus of the revision. In response to reviewer and instructor feedback, the authors implemented some significant changes to the exercise sets by rearranging and relabeling exercises, modifying some exercises, and adding many new ones.
- Of the approximately 10,400 exercises appearing in this edition, 18% are new and many of the exercises from second edition were revised for this edition.
- A simplified exercise set structure went from 5 parts to 3: Getting Started, Practice Exercises, and Explorations and Challenges.
- Chapter Review exercises received a major revamp to provide more exercises, particularly intermediate-level problems, and more opportunities for students to choose a strategy of solution. More than 26% of the Chapter Review exercises are new.
