The authors — Morris Tenenbaum of Cornell University and Harry Pollard of Purdue University — introduce and explain complex, critically important concepts to undergraduate students of mathematics, engineering, and the sciences.
A skillfully organized introductory text examines the origin of differential equations, then defines basic terms and outlines the general solution of a differential equation. Subsequent sections deal with integrating factors, dilution and accretion problems, linearization of first-order systems, Laplace Transforms, Newton's Interpolation Formulas, and more.
Throughout Ordinary Differential Equations, every term is clearly defined. Every theorem is lucidly and thoroughly analyzed, and there is an admirable balance between the theory of differential equations and their application.
