The current textbook is: Calculus of a Single Variable, 6th edition, by Larson, Hostetler and Edwards.
The content of Calculus II is:
Chapter 5 |
Logarithmic, exponential and other transcendental functions |
Chapter 7 |
Integration techniques, l'Hôpital's rule, and improper integrals |
Chapter 8 |
Infinite sequences and series |
Chapter 9 |

You will greatly benefit from becoming familiar with the computer algebra system Maple V Release 5 . It is an important part of this course, and it is used in a growing number of later Mathematics courses. Laboratory worksheets geared to our class are available here. Simply copy the files and open them with Maple. Please send your comments, criticisms and suggestions to rossa@xavier.xu.edu.
