APEX Calculus by Gregory Hartman. This book is a free calculus textbook, and our section is piloting its use at PCC. If we decide this textbook meets our educational needs for calculus, it could save future students hundreds of dollars compared to a commercial textbook.

You can access this book in any of the following ways:

• purchase a copy from a PCC bookstore for the low price of what it costs to print plus a small overhead for the bookstore
• purchase a printed copy from www.apexcalculus.com/purchase
• download a pdf from www.apexcalculus.com/downloads

Having unrestricted access to a textbook is a requirement. This shouldn't be an issue with our textbook, where a free pdf is available.

Perhaps you already own a copy of Calculus by James Stewart, which is used in other calculus course at PCC. You spent money on this book and I do not want that to go to waste. If a topic from APEX is causing you trouble, try using the Stewart book. Use the index on page A135 to locate topics in Stewart.
