Read more about the condition New: A new, unread, unused book in perfect condition with no missing or damaged pages. A mapping grid is included showing precisely which topics are required for the learning outcomes of each unit. Engineering Mathematics is a comprehensive pre-degree maths text for vocational courses and foundation modules at degree level.

I highly recommend this book for students and math enthusiast such as myself to acquire a firm understanding of mathematics from a to z. A wide and thorough topic coverage makes this an ideal text for a wide range of degree modules and institution-devised HNC/D units. John Bird's approach, based on numerous worked examples supported by problems, is ideal for students of a wide range of abilities, and can be worked through at the student's own pace.To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average. Studying engineering, whether it is mechanical, electrical or civil, relies heavily on an understanding of mathematics. Biography: John Bird, BSc (Hons), CEng, CMath, CSci, FIMA, FIET, FCollT, is the former Head of Applied Electronics in the Faculty of Technology at Highbury College, Portsmouth, UK. Remember if you are unsatisfied in any way with any purchase, we will give you a complete and unconditional refund. This textbook clearly demonstrates the relevance of mathematical principles and shows how to apply them in real-life engineering problems.

Now in its sixth edition, Basic Engineering Mathematics is an established textbook that has helped thousands of students to succeed in their exams. Theory is kept to a minimum, placing a firm emphasis on problem-solving skills, and making this a thoroughly practical introduction to the core mathematics needed for engineering studies and practice. Some 1,300 engineering situations/problems have been 'flagged-up' to help demonstrate that engineering cannot be fully understood without a good knowledge of mathematics. John Bird's approach is based on numerous worked examples, supported by 525 worked problems and followed by 925 further problems. Unlike most engineering maths texts, this book does not assume a firm grasp of GCSE maths, yet unlike low-level general maths texts the content is tailored for the needs of engineers.Basic mathematical theories are explained in the simplest of terms, supported by practical engineering examples and applications from a wide variety of engineering disciplines, to ensure the reader can relate the theory to actual engineering practice. The extensive and thorough topic coverage makes this an ideal text for introductory level engineering courses.
