"Based on the author's course at Yale University, the book addresses the widening gap found by Professor Shankar and his colleagues between the mathematics needed for upper-level science study and the knowledge possessed by incoming students. This superb text organizes the necessary mathematics background into a one-semester course covering such topics as:- A review of calculus- Infinite series- Functions of a complex variable- Vector calculus- Matrices- Linear vector spaces- Differential equationsnbsp; Get in shape for your future science studies with this outstanding text."--Back cover.
