'The Essential Maths for Students' series provides the fundamental mathematical and statistical techniques required by students entering Higher Education in a wide range of courses.
An accessible, step-by-step approach to teaching mathematics with today's engineering student in mind. The content is divided into manageable pieces of work ('blocks') focusing on one specific technique and the explanations are gradually developed through fully and part-worked examples. Highlighted key points and use of icons throughout the book aid understanding of the mathematical concepts being presented.
Understanding key mathematical concepts and applying them successfully to solve problems are vital skills that all engineering students must acquire. Mathematics for Engineers teaches, develops and nurtures those skills. Practical, informal and accessible, it begins with the foundations and gradually builds upon this knowledge as it introduces more complex concepts to cover all requirements for a first year engineering maths course, together with introductory material for even more advanced topics.
Mathematics for Engineers introduces Engineering students to Maths, building up right from the basics. Examples and questions throughout help students to learn through practice and applications sections labelled by engineering stream encourage an applied and fuller understanding.

He was an accomplished harper who made his living by composing tunes for wealthy patrons. Often a tune would be named after one of these generous benefactors. Turlough O'Carolan for the melodeon has been written for D/G diatonic a...
Back in 1994 at the game company ‘CORE Design’ in Derby, Lara Croft was born. Through eighteen months of pure hard work from the team, Tomb Raider was released in 1996 and became the success that we see today; taking part in the mid-nineties celebrations of Brit-Pop and Girl Power. This is the story of the team who were involved in creating the first two games, then leaving the series to a new team in 1998. Lara Croft brought class, comedy, and a James Bondian role to the game, dreamt up by Toby Gard and helped to become a pitch with Paul Douglas. The game was a gamble, but because everyone at the company believed in it, it led to huge success for everyone, except for Toby and Paul. ‘T...
Quantum Computation presents the mathematics of quantum computation. The purpose is to introduce the topic of quantum computing to students in computer science, physics and mathematics who have no prior knowledge of this field. The book is written in two parts. The primary mathematical topics required for an initial understanding of quantum computation are dealt with in Part I: sets, functions, complex numbers and other relevant mathematical structures from linear and abstract algebra. Topics are illustrated with examples focussing on the quantum computational aspects which will follow in more detail in Part II. Part II discusses quantum information, quantum measurement and quantum algorithm...
