Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

This clear, pedagogically rich book develops a strong understanding of the mathematical principles and practices that today's engineers need to know. Equally as effective as either a textbook or reference manual, it approaches mathematical concepts from an engineering perspective, making physical applications more vivid and substantial. Its comprehensive instructional framework supports a conversational, down-to-earth narrative style, offering easy accessibility and frequent opportunities for application and reinforcement.

Book News Annotation:

In updating the 1988 text, Greenberg (mechanical engineering, U. of Delaware, Newark) has incorporated a computer algebra system (namely, Maple, with an instructor's manual and student supplement available). No longer assuming that science and engineering students have completed a course in ordinary differential equations, he covers such in the first part. The other sections span: linear algebra, multivariate calculus and field theory, Fourier methods and partial differential equations, and complex variable theory. Contains chapter reviews, exercises, selected formulas, and tables.
