Geared toward undergraduates in the physical sciences, this text offers a very useful review of mathematical methods that students will employ throughout their education and beyond. Includes problems, answers. 1973 edition.
The authors' approach is simple and direct with an emphasis on the analytical understanding of the material. The text is virtually selfcontained, assuming only that the student has a solid understanding of ancillary mathematics.
Mathematical Methods for Science Students
Mathematical Methods in Science and Engineering's modular structure affords instructors enough flexibility to use this book for several different advanced undergraduate and graduate level courses.
This book is written with this multi-disciplinary group in mind, emphasizing practical solutions for diverse applications and the development of a new interdisciplinary science.
"Intended for upper-level undergraduate and graduate courses in chemistry, physics, math and engineering, this book will also become a must-have for the personal library of all advanced students in the physical sciences.
Mathematical Methods for Engineering and Science Students
Throughout the book, numerous examples and exercises reinforcethe presented concepts and techniques. In addition, the book is ina modular format, so each chapter covers its subject thoroughly andcan be read independently.
Intended to follow the usual introductory physics courses, this book contains many original, lucid and relevant examples from the physical sciences, problems at the ends of chapters, and boxes to emphasize important concepts to help guide ...
This book captures some of Pólya's excitement and vision.
New to this edition, the final chapter offers an extensive treatment of numerical methods for solving non-linear equations, finite difference differentiation and integration, initial value and boundary value ODEs, and PDEs in mathematical ...
