All 525 illustrations used in the text can also be downloaded for use in the classroom"--
A practical introduction to the core mathematics required for engineering study and practice Now in its seventh edition, Engineering Mathematics is an established textbook that has helped thousands of students to succeed in their exams. John Bird's approach is based on worked examples and interactive problems. This makes it ideal for students from a wide range of academic backgrounds as the student can work through the material at their own pace. Mathematical theories are explained in a straightforward manner, being supported by practical engineering examples and applications in order to ensure that readers can relate theory to practice. The extensive and thorough topic coverage makes this an ideal text for a range of Level 2 and 3 engineering courses. This title is supported by a companion website with resources for both students and lecturers, including lists of essential formulae, multiple choice tests, full solutions for all 1,800 further questions contained within the practice exercises, and biographical information on the 24 famous mathematicians and engineers referenced throughout the book.
