About this title

Review:

From reviews of the first edition: 'There must be very few major techniques in theoretical physics which are not explained here and illustrated by some genuine examples. It remains, and is likely to continue for many years, an almost indispensable work of reference for anyone attempting research in theoretical physics.' Proceedings of the Physical Society

'The most important single book on the applied mathematician's or theoretical physicist's bookshelf.' British Journal of Applied Physics

'This outstandingly excellent mathematical treatise ... The work is a fine product of British mathematical scholarship, and a benefaction to the cause of progress in natural philosophy.' Nature

Book Description:

This well-known text and reference contains an account of those parts of mathematics that are most frequently needed in physics. Examples of the practical use of the methods developed are given in the text. Exercises accompany each chapter.
