A comprehensive maths text for undergraduates in the engineering disciplines. It does not, however, assume a stong mathematical background, and is designed to lead students through the learning curve they face from the starting point of a grade D or E at A Level, or a typical GNVQ or BTEC National background. The maths is set firmly in context, with applications drawn from mechanical, electrical electronic and control engineering, mechanical science and electrical science, and mathematical principles are clearly explained and deduced to encourage mathematical thinking.
