Solution Techniques for Elementary Partial Differential Equations
About This Book
"In my opinion, this is quite simply the best book of its kind that I have seen thus far."
âProfessor Peter Schiavone, University of Alberta, from the Foreword to the Fourth Edition
Praise for the previous editions
An ideal tool for students taking a first course in PDEs, as well as for the lecturers who teach such courses."
âMarian Aron, Plymouth University, UK
"This is one of the best books on elementary PDEs this reviewer has read so far. Highly recommended."
âCHOICE
Solution Techniques for Elementary Partial Differential Equations, Fourth Edition remains a top choice for a standard, undergraduate-level course on partial differential equations (PDEs). It provides a streamlined, direct approach to developing students' competence in solving PDEs, and offers concise, easily understood explanations and worked examples that enable students to see the techniques in action.
New to the Fourth Edition
-
- Two additional sections
- A larger number and variety of worked examples and exercises
- A companion pdf file containing more detailed worked examples to supplement those in the book, which can be used in the classroom and as an aid to online teaching
