Editorial Reviews

Product Description
Introduces engineers, computer scientists, and physicists to advanced math topics as they relate to practical problems. The material is arranged into seven independent parts: ODE; Linear Algebra, Vector calculus; Fourier Analysis and Partial Differential Equations; Complex Analysis; Numerical methods; Optimization, graphs; Probability and Statistics.

From the Back Cover
Erwin Kreyszig’s Advanced Engineering Mathematics, 9th Edition introduces engineers and computer scientists to advanced math topics as they relate to practical problems.

In today’s world of increasingly complex engineering problems, powerful new mathematical and computational methods, and enormous computer capacities, you can get overwhelmed by little things you will only occasionally use. Instead, you need to learn how to think mathematically and gain a firm grasp of the interrelationship among theory, computing, and experiment. That’s why Kreyszig’s text helps you develop a solid understanding of the basic principles and methods of advanced engineering mathematics in all three phases of problem solving: Modeling, Solving, and Interpreting. This best-selling text is known for its comprehensive coverage, careful and correct mathematics, outstanding exercises, and self-contained chapters.

Key Features

  • New problem sets.
  • New Computer Experiments, using the computer as an instrument of “experimental mathematics” for exploration and research.
  • More on modeling and selection methods.
  • Accurate and solid theoretical foundation.
  • Clear examples and exposition of material.
  • Modern and standard notations.

3.0 out of 5 stars Good Reference....and thats it, May 6, 2005
This book is great as a reference. You are trying a problem in Complex Analysis, and you are stuck, and you want to recall the Cauchy Integral Theorem for multiply connected domains, and thats when you need an excellent resource like this one. Flip a few pages, get what you want, and get back to the problem.
BUT, if you want to LEARN things, if you want to know WHAT a multiple connected domain is, what the various theorems are, then NO....Kreyszig isnt what you need.
You need a textbook in Complex Analysis then, not a All-in-One reference manual, which is what Advanced Engineering Mathematics by Kreyszig actually is.
I will give it three stars, because it really is very comprehensive, an excellent addition to a Math Majors library. Or for that matter, to even an engineers library, but it certainly cannot be used to learn things for the first time.
Its a very good reference text, assuming you have learnt your ABCs from somewhere else. Although it covers a lot, it doesnt cover things in a way that would motivate students to learn new ideas or concepts. Its a mathematical cook-book, its only got the array of techniques in it, not the theory and the motivation.
For those, you need to try the traditional textbooks in the different areas.

5.0 out of 5 stars the key is to use it as a reference text, October 21, 2000
By Luis Carlos Alvarez (Santo Domingo, D.R.) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I am currently using this massive book as it is the required text for my Engineering Math I course (MS Mech Eng). I heartily agree with others who claim to find this book is not thorough enough in the subjects it covers. BUT, out of curiosity I have delved into the book and studied the chapters covering material I am familiar with I saw in previous courses (Diff Equations, 4 Calculus courses, Control Systems, Linear Systems, Numerical Methods) and I have to say... it is an ALL encompassing book, and the tremendous amount of material in it has is a credit to itself. Do not criticize this book because you failed in understanding a subject when using it, I myself am currenly a victim of this situation. Go find a book which treats only the topic (Laplace, Fourier, Linear Algebra, etc.) you're covering now, study it, and return it. Keep Kreyszig's as a handy reference. Mathematics is an extensive science, this "handbook" for us beginners is one of the best there is. Question: Did any of you Mechanical Engineers use MARKS' Handbook for your Fluid Mechanics course, or Shigley's Machine Design Handbook for learning how to design gears?

5.0 out of 5 stars A reference manual for advanced engineering mathematics, October 2, 2005
By Rohan G C (Chicago, USA) - See all my reviews
This book is an all-encompassing book dealing with all (I am not joking) topics of advanced engineering mathematics required by practicing engineers and students. This is not meant to be used as an introductory text during a math course but as a reference manual for practical applications once you go beyond your math course. If you are looking for a comprehensive math book with consistent notation and style of writing, look no further-get this book.
