Information on textbooks for all Undergraduate Mathematics
courses at the New Brunswick and Piscataway campuses of Rutgers
for the current semester is collected here (for prior semesters since
Fall 2000, see the archive).
Individual course pages
may have additional information.
Most course numbers are linked to the course pages and 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 updates 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 or package,
which is indicated by a link marked “(text)” or
“(package)”.
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,
Cheap-Textbooks,
CheapestTextbooks,
Chegg,
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. The
site CollegeBookRenter.com
specializes in renting textbooks.
ISBN numbers issued before 2007 have 10 digits;
those issued since 2007 have 13 digits.
Some books published before 2007 can be identified by ISBN numbers
in either format.
Detailed information about availablity of textbooks at local stores
can be found at the following bookstore sites, linked by
