It is well established as an ideal bridging text for degree courses and introduces students to the more advanced mathematics encountered in higher education. The second edition has been thoroughly updated and has also been expanded to cover the additional mathematics syllabuses for GNVQ courses. The authors relate mathematical concepts to engineering and scientific problems throughout the text and take the reader through each solution in clearly identified steps.New for this edition *now includes additional chapters on vectors and matrices, and differential equations *improved coverage of co-ordinate geometry, calculus, trigonometry and statistics *includes many more worked examples and exercises, based on ngineering and science solutionsTopics covered include: algebra; computation; trigonometry; differentiation; applications of differentiation; integration; differential equations; applications of integration; graphs; series; numerical methods; statistics; probability and sampling; complex numbers; binary arithmetic; sets; logic; Boolean algebra; determinants and matrices; vectors.
