Description
Beginning graduate students in mathematical sciences and related areas in physical and computer sciences and engineering are expected to be familiar with a daunting breadth of mathematics, but few have such a background. This bestselling book helps students fill in the gaps in their knowledge. Thomas A. Garrity explains the basic points and a few key results of all the most important undergraduate topics in mathematics, emphasizing the intuitions behind the subject. The explanations are accompanied by numerous examples, exercises and suggestions for further reading that allow the reader to test and develop their understanding of these core topics. Featuring four new chapters and many other improvements, this second edition of All the Math You Missed is an essential resource for advanced undergraduates and beginning graduate students who need to learn some serious mathematics quickly.
I’ve not quite finished reading this book, but I find its choice of topics as “the maths missing” very good indeed. It’s also piqued at just the level I wanted.
Great Book AAA+++
Libro stupendo, contenuto stupendo. Raccomando.
This book is for students attending University.
The book is an overview of the math you might be expected to encounter in graduate school when studying Math and/or one or more of the hard sciences.
