All of the basic math that scientists and engineers need-now expanded and revised!brbrWhether you need to understand advances in modern technology, prepare for professional exams, or simply brush up on skills acquired long ago,brbrJohn Fanchi’s quick reference guide to applied math is for you. He has updated his 1997 book to include probability and statistics in new chapters with exercises and solutions. Fanchi explains all topics clearly and methodically, from the ground up. He begins with straightforward concepts in college math and gradually progresses to more advanced topics, using practical applications throughout to demonstrate relationships between different areas. The wealth of numerical methods and illustrative examples further enhances the utility of this truly indispensable book.
