ISBN Mathematical Techniques ( An Introduction for the Engineering Physical and Mathematical Sciences ) book

Mathematical concepts and theories underpin much of the physical sciences and engineering. Yet maths is a subject that many students find challenging and even intimidating - despite it being so central to their field of study. Mathematical Techniques provides a complete course in mathematics covering all the essential topics with which a physical sciences or engineering student should be familiar. By breaking the subject into small modular chapters the book introduces and builds on concepts in a progressive carefully-layered way - always with an emphasis on how to use the power of maths to best effect rather than on theoretical proofs of the maths presented. With a huge array of end of chapter problems and new self-check questions the fourth edition of Mathematical Techniques provides extensive opportunities for students to build their confidence in the best way possible: by using the maths for themselves.
