Foundation Mathematics for Engineers and Scientists with Worked Examples

Foundation Mathematics for Engineers and Scientists with Worked Examples covers fundamental topics in mathematics required for science and engineering disciplines.

It is primarily designed to provide a comprehensive, straightforward and step-by-step presentation of mathematical concepts to engineers, scientists and general readers.

It moves from simple to challenging areas, with carefully tailored worked examples also of different degrees of challenge.

Mathematical concepts are deliberately linked with appropriate engineering applications to reinforce their value and are aligned with topics taught in major overseas curriculums.

This book is written primarily for students at levels 3 and 4 (typically in the early stages of a degree in engineering or a related discipline) or for those undertaking foundation, access, Higher National Certificate (HND), International Foundation Year (IFY), and International Year One (IYO) courses with math modules.

It consists of seven parts:Part I: Basic concepts in MathematicsPart II: Coordinate GeometryPart III: Algebraic Expression and EquationsPart IV: SurdsPart V: Indices and LogarithmsPart VI: PolynomialsPart VII: TrigonometryEach chapter is devoted to a topic and can be used as a stand-alone guide with no prior knowledge assumed.

Further practice material for each chapter is available online.
