Mathematics for the Physical Sciences

By James B. Seaborn

Book Overview

This book is intended to provide a bridge from courses in general physics to the intermediate-level courses in classical mechanics, electrodynamics and quantum mechanics; it bases the mathematical discussions on specific physical problems to provide a basis for developing mathematical intuition.Many of the exercises call for graphical representations, and some are particularly amenable to the use of numerical methods, but the treatment avoids the implication that computers are necessary to solve the problems.
