Soo T. Tan Calculus: Early Transcendentals, a Cengage college calculus textbook by Soo T. Tan, widely adopted in applied/business calculus programs and at institutions emphasizing rigorous-but-accessible single-variable + brief multivariable calculus. Identical major-topic scope as Stewart Calculus 9e, the dominant Cengage college calc family structural sibling: limits, derivatives, applications of differentiation, integrals, applications of integration, techniques of integration, sequences and series, parametric/polar coordinates, vectors and the geometry of space, vector functions, partial derivatives, multiple integrals, vector calculus. 15 chapters (Ch 1-15).

A development of the limit concept including one-sided limits, limit laws, the precise epsilon-delta definition, continuity, limits at infinity, and the introduction of the derivative as a rate of change and as a function
A development of the standard differentiation rules for polynomials, exponentials, trigonometric, logarithmic, and inverse trigonometric functions, the chain rule, implicit differentiation, related rates, linear approximation, and hyperbolic functions
Applications of derivatives including extrema, the Mean Value Theorem, monotonicity, concavity, l'Hospital's Rule, curve sketching, optimization, Newton's Method, and antiderivatives
