Summary
"This book introduces and explains classical and modern mathematical procedures as applied to the real problems confronting engineers and geoscientists. It lays out the foundations for mastering difficult and sometimes confusing mathematical methods. Arithmetic examples and figures support this approach, while important mathematical techniques are detailed. Derived from the author's experience teaching courses in applied mathematics, it is based on the lectures, exercises and lessons she has used in her classes. Also, the explanations and discussions in the book are inspired by the most frequently-asked questions of students, graduates and professionals."--Jacket.
