Schaum's Outline of Mathematical Handbook of Formulas and Tables [Paperback]

Murray R. Spiegel (Author)

Book Description

Publication Date: February 1, 1968 | Series: Schaum's Outlines

This handbook is unusual in that it combines in a single volume formulas and tables from both elementary and advanced mathematics. For example, topics treated range from those in algebra, geometry, trigonometry, analytic geometry and calculus to Fourier series, Laplace and Fourier transforms, Bessel and Legendre functions and many other advanced special functions. Such topics are needed by both students and research workers in the fields of engineering, physics, mathematics and other sciences.

5.0 out of 5 stars Inexpensive reference!, September 6, 2000

This review is from: Schaum's Mathematical Handbook of Formulas and Tables (Paperback)

As an undergraduate physics major, it is necessary to have some sort of mathematical handbook containing tables of integrals, trig identities, differentiation rules, vector identities, etc. As such, I cannot give this book higher praise! While does not contain as many features as the CRC Handbook of Tables and Formulae, or many of the other big famous hardcovers, it makes up for this in many ways. It is compact, lightweight and fits in most bookbags. It contains the tables and rules which will be most used in undergraduate homework problems. Most importantly, it is affordable on a student budget! I carry this with me to study groups and tutoring sessions.

This review is from: Schaum's Mathematical Handbook of Formulas and Tables (Paperback)

This handbook was pretty much all I ever needed from college through my Ph.D. in physics. An extremely valuable resources. If the formula you need isn't in here, chances are you did the problem wrong

5.0 out of 5 stars Invaluable reference!, November 18, 1999

This review is from: Schaum's Mathematical Handbook of Formulas and Tables (Paperback)

As an undergrad in physics and math, one of the physics professors recommended this book as "the math reference you couldn't live without". Now as a grad student, I'm quickly discovering that she wasn't kidding. It has just about everything you could need. I don't know how much time I've saved from digging through a pile of textbooks to find the appropriate integral or function. Get it. You won't regret it.
