A wide range of courses have an intake that requires a
really accessible introduction to the key maths topics for engineering
-
Basic Engineering Mathematics is designed to fulfil that
need. Unlike most engineering maths texts, this book does not assume a
firm grasp of GCSE maths. Unlike low-level general maths texts, the
content is tailored for the needs of engineers.
John Bird's approach, based on numerous worked examples supported by
problems, is ideal for students of a wide range of abilities, and
ideal for those who find the theoretical side of mathematics
difficult.
The content has been designed to match current level 2 courses -
Intermediate GNVQ, Level 2 NVQs, City & Guilds certificates, etc. The
book will also be ideal for use with the many level 3 students who
struggle with their maths. With this in mind, all topics within the
mandatory unit of the Advanced GNVQ are included.
