Editorial Reviews

Product Description
Since the first volume of this work came out in Germany in 1937, this book, together with its first volume, has remained standard in the field. Courant and Hilbert's treatment restores the historically deep connections between physical intuition and mathematical development, providing the reader with a unified approach to mathematical physics. The present volume represents Richard Courant's final revision of 1961.

5.0 out of 5 stars state of the art in the 50's, October 17, 2006
By N. Ligterink (The Netherlands) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Beware the german edition is the prewar edition, and the english edition is a
complete overhaul to include modern material at the time. This is not really a
textbook, but a sourcebook of "issues" in partial differential equations. Some
problems have been forgotten now due to the focussing on real, linear equations
and weak solutions (as described, for example, in the books by Hormander). It is
a gem for who wants some taste of the full breadth of theory of PDE's.
