Title
A First Course in Differential Equations (Undergraduate Texts in Mathematics),Used
Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
The third edition of this concise, popular textbook on elementary differential equations gives instructors an alternative to the many voluminous texts on the market. It presents a thorough treatment of the standard topics in an accessible, easytoread, format. The overarching perspective of the text conveys that differential equations are about applications. This book illuminates the mathematical theory in the text with a wide variety of applications that will appeal to students in physics, engineering, the biosciences, economics and mathematics. Instructors are likely to find that the first four or five chapters are suitable for a first course in the subject.This edition contains a healthy increase over earlier editions in the number of worked examples and exercises, particularly those routine in nature. Two appendices include a review with practice problems, and a MATLAB supplement that gives basic codes and commands for solving differential equations. MATLAB is not required; students are encouraged to utilize available software to plot many of their solutions. Solutions to evennumbered problems are available on springer.com.
