About this title

Review:

' ... an excellent choice for a one-semester, traditional course in differential equations at the undergraduate level'. J. David Logan, University of Nebraska

'To a significant extent the appeal for this book lies in the wealth of examples and solutions that have been selected more for further understanding than for drill. Through the process of review, I have discovered several mathematical developments that I would like to incorporate in my graduate level fluid mechanics and mathematics courses. I am sure other readers will come away with similar rewards from reading this delightful text.' P Weideman, Department of Mechanical Engineering, University of Colorado

Book Description:

While mastery of ordinary differential equations is essential for students in many disciplines, adhering to any one method of solving them is not: this book stresses alternative examples and analyses ways the student can build an understanding of a number of approaches to finding solutions and understanding their behaviour.
