This book is ideal for one- or two-semester or two- orthree-quarter courses covering topics in college algebra, finite mathematics,and calculus for students in business, economics, and the life and socialsciences.
Introductory Mathematical Analysis for Business, Economics, and the Life andSocial Sciences provides a mathematical foundation for students in avariety of fields and majors. The authors establish an emphasis on algebraiccalculations that sets this text apart from other introductory, appliedmathematics books. Because the process of calculating variables builds skillsin mathematical modeling, this emphasis paves the way for students to solvereal-world problems that use calculus. The book’s comprehensivestructure—covering college algebra in Chapters 0 through 4, finite mathematicsin Chapters 5 through 9, and calculus in Chapters 10 through 17—offersinstructors flexibility in how they use the material based on the coursethey’re teaching, the semester they’re at, or what the students’ backgroundallows and their needs dictate.

· Applications An abundance and variety of real-world applications appearthroughout the book so that students see how mathematics is applied to everydayand work-related situations. These applications cover such diverse areas asbusiness, economics, biology, medicine, sociology, psychology, ecology, statistics,earth science, and archaeology.
· Now WorkProblem N After a worked example, studentsare directed to an end-of-section problem (labeled with a colored exercisenumber) that reinforces the ideas of the example, giving students anopportunity to practice what they have just learned.
· Cautions Cautionary warnings are presented in very much the same way aninstructor would warn students of common errors. These warnings appear in themargin, along with other explanatory notes and emphases.
· Examples andExercises More than 850 examples are workedout in detail, some including strategies that guide students through the stepsof solving instead of having them simply apply a memorized model or formula.There are over 500 diagrams that illustrate and clarify concepts and over 5,000exercises for students to practice and reinforce their understanding of theconcepts; more than 30% of these have been either updated or are completelynew.
