Synopsis
Revised to meet the needs of the wide range of students beginning
engineering courses, the fifth edition of this text has an
extended "Foundation" section including new chapters on
graphs, trigonometry, and binomial series and functions. As an
introductory mathematics course for students on science and
engineering degrees and pre-degree courses, it is suitable for
both classroom use and self study. The new CD-ROM included with
the book provides stepped hints, worked solutions and immediate
feedback on exercises and problems. It has a user friendly
interface and intuitive design. A networkable version is also
available with a channelling of student progress through to the
tutor.
From the Publisher
Engineering Mathematics takes students through the
mathematics in a step-by-step fashion, using a wealth of examples
and exercises. The book is divided into two sections with the
Foundations section starting at level 0 of the IEng syllabus and
the main section extending over all elements of a first year
undergraduate course. The book therefore suits a full range of
abilities and levels of access. A new CD-ROM acts as a personal
tutor guiding students though exercises. A multi-user version is
available for course tutors to set tutorial sessions and
assessments with channelled feedback.
Features:
NEW respected and experienced author on board
NEW Quizzes and Can You? checklists guide the reader through
the course and focus understanding
NEW Expanded Foundation section means access for even more
students, including those with GCSE entry level
NEW Foundation programmes on Graphs, Trigonometry, Binomial
Series and Functions
NEW Programme on the Laplace Transform
NEW Bigger format with modern page layout
NEW Exciting, innovative CD-ROM. Multi-user functionality also
available.
NEW Interactive Further Problems on this website (from late
Spring 2001)
NEW Applications Problems on this website (from late Spring
2001)
Full breadth of exercises from basic to challenging
Ideal for self-study and classroom use
A much copied, but never equalled approach which leads the
student through the mathematics until they can do it - learning by
doing.
