Description: Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 2005. First Paperback Edition. Original decorated wrappers. ISBN: 0521603692. With diagrams. Light wear to spine, covers & corners. Spine uncreased. ; "Practical Applied Mathematics: Modelling, Analysis, Approximation" by Sam Howison is a resourceful guide for those interested in applying mathematical techniques to solve real-world problems. The book is designed for readers with a background in applied mathematics and focuses on developing practical skills in modeling, analyzing, and approximating solutions to complex issues found in various fields like finance, engineering, and physics. Howison structures the book around three core themes: the creation of mathematical models, the analysis of these models to understand their implications, and the development of approximation techniques for cases where exact solutions are unfeasible. Each chapter introduces fundamental principles and progressively tackles more complicated applications, effectively demonstrating the transition from theory to practice. This text stands out for its clear exposition of mathematical concepts applied in practical scenarios, supplemented by numerous examples and exercises. Howison emphasizes the importance of both analytical and numerical methods, offering insights into how these approaches can be effectively utilized in professional environments. "Practical Applied Mathematics" serves as an essential tool for advanced undergraduates, graduate students, and professionals who seek to enhance their problem-solving skills through the application of mathematical methods. It is an invaluable resource for anyone looking to bridge the gap between theoretical mathematics and its practical applications in the real world. ; Quarto; xiv, 326 pages.
