This streamlined version of `Thomas’ Calculus’ provides a faster-paced, precise and accurate presentation of single variable calculus for a college-level calculus course.   'University Calculus, Part One' is the ideal choice for professors who want a faster-paced single variable text with a more conceptually balanced exposition.  It is a blend of intuition and rigor.  Transcendental functions are introduced early and are covered in depth in subsequent chapters of the text.
