Spiegel McGraw-Hill Companies, 1969 Good for Review Like the other books of the Schaum's Outline series, this book goes through the theories and shows you how to work the problems step by step. Although this is very helpful, I like to be able to test my knowledge. I say this is good for review because you will remember as you read this. You will ...             Probability: A Graduate Course (Springer Texts in Statistics)2 reviews Allan Gut Springer, 2007 Very helpful reference I used this book a couple of years ago as a reference for my graduate probability course. I leave this review in response to the only one left so far. Dave D's remarks not only are false but the lengthy negative review suggest the comments were done out of spite or as some form of self gratitude. ...             Numerical Analysis with CD-ROM4 reviews Timothy Sauer Addison Wesley, 2005 good introduction to numerical analysis + A very clear textbook + Nice book. + An excellent introductory text             An Introduction to Partial Differential Equations with MATLAB (Chapman & Hall/Crc Applied Mathematics & ...2 reviews Matthew P. Coleman Chapman & Hall/CRC, 2004 Very well written with excellent explanations. + Good and Clear First, I have to say that I'm biased because I'm a former student of Prof. Coleman's (Multivariable Calc and ODE's). But I was happy to see that he had written a PDE book and I bought it so that I could relearn PDE's, since the PDE course I had wasn't so great. I haven't been disappointed. I've ...             Dynamical Systems with Applications using MATLAB Stephen Lynch, Birkhauser Birkhäuser Boston, 2004 This introduction to dynamical systems theory treats both discrete dynamical systems and continuous systems. Driven by numerous examples from a broad range of disciplines and requiring only knowledge of ordinary differential equations, the text emphasizes applications and simulation utilizing MATLAB®, Simulink®, and the Symbolic Math toolbox. Beginning with a tutorial guide to MATLAB®, the ...             Advanced Mathematical Methods with Maple2 reviews Derek Richards Cambridge University Press, 2001 A vigorous intro to advanced mathematics for applications I'll begin by noting the unintended humour on Amazon's part, the Preface is signed Derek Richards, Milton Keynes, January 2001, by Derek Richards of England's Open University.
