Description
John Bird's approach, based on numerous worked examples and interactive problems, is ideal for students from a wide range of academic
backgrounds, and can be worked through at the student's own pace. Basic mathematical theories are explained in a straightforward manner,
being supported by practical engineering examples and applications in order to ensure that readers can relate theory to practice. The
extensive and thorough topic coverage makes this an ideal text for a range of university degree modules, foundation degrees, and HNC/D
units.
Now in its sixth edition, Higher Engineering Mathematics is an established textbook that has helped many thousands of students
to gain exam success. It has been updated to maximise the book's suitability for first year engineering degree students and those following
foundation degrees. This book also caters specifically for the engineering mathematics units of the Higher National Engineering schemes
from Edexcel. As such it includes the core unit, Analytical Methods for Engineers, and two specialist units, Further Analytical Methods
for Engineers and Engineering Mathematics, both of which are common to the electrical/electronic engineering and mechanical engineering
pathways. For ease of reference a mapping grid is included that shows precisely which topics are required for the learning outcomes of
each unit.
The book is supported by a suite of free web downloads: – Introductory-level algebra: To enable students to revise the basic
algebra needed for engineering courses – available at http://books.elsevier.com/companions/XXXXXXXXX – Instructor's Manual: Featuring
full worked solutions and mark schemes for all of the assignments in the book and the remedial algebra assignment – available at http://www.textbooks.elsevier.com
(for lecturers only) – Extensive Solutions Manual: 640 pages featuring worked solutions for 1,000 of the further problems and exercises
in the book – available on http://www.textbooks.elsevier.com (for lecturers only)
Audience
Higher engineering students that need an accessible mathematics textbook.
