Anyone whose work involves mathematics and its methodology -- especially engineers and scientists -- will appreciate this authoritative handbook, which affords convenient access to information from every branch of mathematics. A reliable source of helpful definitions, theorems, and formulas, it features an easy-to-follow format outlining mathematical methods for speedy, accurate solutions to the most demanding problems.

Among the topics covered are Fourier transforms, z transforms, linear and nonlinear programming, calculus of variations, random-process theory, special funcions, combinatorial analysis, numerical methods, game theory, and much more. By concisely tabulating related formulas and omitting proofs, the authors have packed a remarkably large amount of material into a single, handy volume. Appropriate introductions, notes, and cross-references appear throughtout the text, showing the interrelations of various topics and their significance to science and engineering.

Illustrated throughout with numerous figures and tables, this volume represents an invaluable resource for both students and professionals.
