Description
Book SynopsisThis guide book to mathematics contains in handbook form the fundamental working knowledge of mathematics which is needed as an everyday guide for working scientists and engineers, as well as for students. Easy to understand, and convenient to use, this guide book gives concisely the information necessary to evaluate most problems which occur in concrete applications. In the newer editions emphasis was laid on those fields of mathematics that became more important for the formulation and modeling of technical and natural processes, namely Numerical Mathematics, Probability Theory and Statistics, as well as Information Processing. Besides many enhancements and new paragraphs, new sections on Geometric and Coordinate Transformations, Quaternions and Applications, and Lie Groups and Lie Algebras were added for the sixth edition.
Trade Review“Russian scholars Bronshtein and Semendyayev created a math classic over seven decades ago. … This new Springer edition details over 1,500 entries in its table of contents, including new entries for analytical geometry, Lie groups and Lie algebra, nonlinear optimization, and computer algebra systems. … Summing Up: Recommended. All mathematics library collections.” (K. L. Swetland, Choice, Vol. 53 (11), July, 2016)
