Textbook list, Fall 2008
Information on textbooks for all Undergraduate Mathematics courses
at the New Brunswick and Piscataway campuses of Rutgers is collected
here. This information is cumulative since the Fall 2000 semester.
Course numbers are followed by brackets containing the codes F
for Fall Semester courses, S for Spring Semester courses,
U for sUmmer Semester courses, or any combination of these.
Changes in textbook for the current semester are indicated at the end
of the item (including upgrades to new editions). When
available, a link to a suitable page on the publisher's web site has
been included. Information about particular books can be found in a
few steps from this link. In a few cases, there is a fixed page
devoted to the particular text which is indicated by a link marked
(text).
The title, author or ISBN number can also be used to
find information from on-line bookstores such as
Amazon, Barnes &
Noble or Borders; or from
sites like
Aaapricesearch,
A1Books,
BookByte,
BookFinder4U,
BooksPrice.com
(this one allows comparison of several books in a single search),
BuyUsedTextbooks,
Campus Books,
CampusI,
Chambal,
CheapestTextbooks,
CollegeSwapShop
or Direct Textbook
that collect information from many
stores. The site iChapters offers individual
chapters in electronic format from college textbooks, as well as
discounts on textbooks in both electronic and print format.
On January 1, 2007, the 10 digit ISBN was replaced by the expanded
ISBN-13. Those numbers will be added to this page as they become
available. To learn more, see ISBN13 For
Dummies. Although the older 10 digit numbers will remain on this
page, some sites no longer recognize them, so the 13 digit number
should be used for most searches.
Information about availablity of textbooks at local stores can be
found at the sites of those stores:
Rutgers Bookstore
New Jersey Books
Both store sites have a link to select individual courses for more
information.

135[FSU]: The Textbook, Study Guide, and Student Solutions
Manual should be obtained as a bundle. To be sure of having all
resources, students should obtain this package from a local bookstore.
The publisher's description [ Fall 2004]
of the bundle (ISBN: 0-536-22085-9 from 2004 or 0-536-80120-7 from
2008 are currently acceptable) is:
"This is a custom
text and is available only at Rutgers bookstores, and has been
competitively priced at the SAME PRICE as the used version of the
book, and includes a FREE solutions manual and study guide as well - a
great deal for students." In addition, a graphing calculator is used
in this course. Our custom text has been divided into
two separate volumes: one covering 135 and a second for the
continuation courses 136 and 138.
