Synopsis
Full coverage of 12 different math topics in just one volume! Statistis, plane trigonometry, calculus, boolean algebra--most likely your mathematics needs don't fit neatly into books on single math topics. That's why we created the new Handbook of Applied Mathematics for Engineers and Scientists--the first math problemsolver to solve tough daily problems in 13 different math fields. put this new Hnadbook at your fingertips, and you'll be able to review essential math principles and definitions in seconds, and use its data as a springboard for creative problems-solving. Each math area features definitions, principles and equations, and all applications are cross-indexed for maximum convenience. Algebra; Plane and Spherical Trigonometry; Plane and Solid Analytic Geometry; Permutations and Combinations; Matrix Algebra; Boolean Algebra; Transformation of Space in Computer Graphics; Statistics; Probability; Regression Analysis; Cybernetics; Calculus.
Review
``The main strengths of the book are its breadth, and its emphasis on making the mathematical ideas directly applicable to the interests of engineers. ...I recommend the book to practicing scientists and engineers.'' (Applied Mechanics Review 1992-05-01)
``The author covers the relevant theories and equations in a clear style. then, he provides illustrative examples with sufficient details and clear art work. The author has successfully put together most of the commonly needed equations, tables and solution techniques by engineers and scientists. ...The coverage of the subject areas in this handbook is complete which is an important requirement for a handbook, making it a valuable reference for engineers and scientists.'' (Naval Engineers Journal 1992-03-01)
``Comprehensive in scope and highly practical in approach, this outstanding resource not only presents the definitions, basic equations, principles, techniques of mathematics, but also illustrates their applications with more than 300 solved examples.'' (Academic Library Book Review 1992-02-01)
``Specifically designed to meet the on-the-job requirements of today's computer-oriented engineers and scientists, the HANDBOOK shows exactly how to apply current mathematical techniques to a wide range of engineering and scientific problems. ...(an) outstanding resource.'' (Academic Library Book Review 1992-02-01)
``I found the practical approach to mathematics used in this book refreshing. The material was both interesting nd easily understood. The book is recommended for those who need a handy, easy-to-understand, and practical reference on mathematic principles.'' (Inform 1992-01-01)
``In this era of computer-oriented engineers and scientists, the practical use of applied mathematics is perhaps more broadly important than ever before. For these professionals, this book will provide an invaluable reference source.'' (IEEE Electrical Installation Magazine 1991-12-01)
