Review:

"The text is a fairly easy read, well laid out, and laced with examples that serve to illustrate several concepts at once, thus obviating the necessity of hundreds more. The student will derive benefit from the clarity, and the professional from a concise compilation of techniques stressing application rather than theory. As such this book will be useful to a wide range of physical scientists and engineers, as well as the interested life scientist. My summary: Recommended."
- John A. Wass, for SCIENTIFIC COMPUTING AND INSTRUMENTATION

From the Back Cover:

FROM SECOND EDITION
This is the kind of book that I would have wanted when I was a student in physical chemistry. The mathematics courses that I took were like most such courses--they were taught from the point of view of a mathematician and focused on the mathematical theory rather than on applying the mathematics to a particular field in science. I have tried to include everything in this book that a student of physical chemistry needs to know about mathematics in order to use it as one of his or her most important tools, presented from the point of view of applications
