 Great Text November 28, 2005

This was a required course text for a junior-level math course in "Engineering Math" that I took as an undergrad. It has since proved an invaluable resource, both in later mathematics courses and in engineering classes/research (I'm now in my first year of grad school.) I have both used it as a review and as a reference in picking up new material -- it has a pretty good variety of useful math in it (everything from differential equations to vector calculus to basic complex analysis.) Although it doesn't go very "deep" into any one thing, it has enough in there to be useful for an engineer needing a basic understanding of each subject.
If you're looking for a good, broad mathematical reference book, this one should fit the bill. I've had a number of people try to steal my copy over the past few years (by "borrowing" it indefinitely), so I know that others out there have found it useful, as well.

Advanced Engineering Mathematics
As an electrical engineering student, this book has helped wonders. If you are studying Operational Calculus or any type of advanced continuous mathematics, this is the book that is nice to have for a quick reference. This book has many transforms types (Laplace, Fourier, Z-transform), differential equations, and matrices calculations. It also has vector calculus in this book which might be handy for mechanical engineers.
Good book January 30, 2010

The book was everything I ever hoped for in a book. It fulfilled all of my textbook needs for differential equations. It even has numbers inside!!! The book arrived in near pristine condition and will remain so because of its importance in my academic endeavors.
Better than Stewart April 22, 2003

I used this text in a second year differentail equations course and a second year vector calculus course. I like how this book explained the concepts better than i liked stewart (a classic first year calculus text) in some areas, like partial differentials and line integrals. Once you've read each section and thoroughly understand what was said there is no problem in the text you can't solve. However be warned this book is replete with errors, I found many and brought them to the attention of my TA.

Bought this book as an alternative to getting the ridiculously expensive new edition. It is almost exaclty the same except for a few little chapter exerpts and special examples that I had to get from a friend's book, but other than that the vast majority of the problems and everything are identical. Some of them are numbered a little differently, like with the exercises switched places, but again, only a small percentage. The only thing I find annoying about this book is the few number of worked out examples. If you get this book, get the student manual that comes with it or that comes with the new version because I need a lot of examples to study off of and this did not cut it.
