This comprehensive, student-friendly textbook teaches maths in a step-by-step fashion with hundreds of examples and exercises in an applied engineering context. The purpose of the maths is immediately made clear, resulting in a highly motivating text for first year engineering and pre-degree students.

This popular, world-wide selling textbook teaches engineering mathematics in a step-by-step fashion and uniquely through engineering examples and exercises which apply the techniques right from their introduction. This contextual use of mathematics is highly motivating, as with every topic and each new page students see the importance and relevance of mathematics in engineering. The examples are taken from mechanics, aerodynamics, electronics, engineering, fluid dynamics and other areas. While being general and accessible for all students, they also highlight how mathematics works in any individual’s engineering discipline. The material is often praised for its careful pace, and the author pauses to ask questions to keep students reflecting. Proof of mathematical results is kept to a minimum. Instead the book develops learning by investigating results, observing patterns, visualizing graphs and answering questions using technology.

This textbook is ideal for first year undergraduates and those on pre-degree courses in Engineering (all disciplines) and Science.

New to this Edition:
- Fully revised and improved on the basis of student feedback
- New sections
- More examples, more exam questions
- Vignettes and photos of key mathematicians
