Description for Mathematical Physics
Paperback. The second edition of this successful text, provides a comprehensive treatment on the mathematical methods used in physics and engineering. Covering intermediate and advanced material in a manner appropriate for undergraduate students with emphasis on the mathematical tools commonly used by scientists and engineers to solve real-world problems. Num Pages: 689 pages, Illustrations. BIC Classification: PH. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 239 x 173 x 35. Weight in Grams: 1324.
What sets this volume apart from other mathematics texts is its emphasis on mathematical tools commonly used by scientists and engineers to solve real-world problems. Using a unique approach, it covers intermediate and advanced material in a manner appropriate for undergraduate students. Based on author Bruce Kusse's course at the Department of Applied and Engineering Physics at Cornell University, Mathematical Physics begins with essentials such as vector and tensor algebra, curvilinear coordinate systems, complex variables, Fourier series, Fourier and Laplace transforms, differential and integral equations, and solutions to Laplace's equations. The book moves on to explain complex topics that often ... Read more

Reviews for Mathematical Physics
"Any lecturer on mathematical methods is also looking for worked examples and numerous exercises. This book passes these tests admirably. [...] In summary, a welcome addition to the good books in this area." Australian PHYSICS "Insgesamt ist das Buch allen Studierenden zu empfehlen, die über den Tellerrand eines mathematischen Grundkurses hinausgehen wollen und gleichzeitig physikalische Motivationen suchen."
