Résumé

This 1998 book is an excellent toolkit for solving the mathematical problems encountered in foundation courses in physics and engineering. Helps turn dry theory into working systems. A mathematical methods course that gets results through teaching applications to a variety of real problems.

All You Wanted to Know about Mathematics but Were Afraid to Ask Résumé

All You Wanted to Know about Mathematics but Were Afraid to Ask: Mathematics for Science Students Louis Lyons (University of Oxford)

This book, first published in 1998, is the second in a two volume work and introduces integral and differential calculus, waves, matrices, and eigenvectors for undergraduates in physics and engineering. Together, the two volumes cover all the mathematics needed for an introductory course in the physical sciences. The approach taken is to learn through understanding real examples, showing mathematics as a tool for understanding physical systems and their behaviour. The aim is to make the student feel at home with real problems by creating a toolkit through a wide range of examples. The traditional approach of teaching theory for its own sake is not used in this course. Dr. Lyons brings a wealth of teaching experience to this refreshing textbook on the fundamentals of mathematics for physics and engineering.
