About this title

Synopsis:

Designed as a reference as well as a first or second year level textbook, this book helps physics undergraduates acquire an appreciation of the mathematical basis of physical theories and achieve the expected level of competence in mathematical manipulations. It comprises topics prerequisite to the study of the standard undergraduate courses in physics, and topics for advanced students, including vector calculus, matrices, and Fourier series and transforms.

Review:

`Good...comprehensive...takes its place alongside other well-known texts in this field...Wong is good at keeping the physical implications in sight...' The Times Higher Education Supplement
