As per the new syllabus of 2006-2007 Uttarakhand Technical University. The subject matter is presented in a very systematic and logical manner. The book contains fairly large number of solved examples from question papers of examinations recently conducted by different universities and Engineering Colleges so that students may not find any difficulty while answering these problems in their final examinations.
The purpose of this book is to bridge the gap between the level of mathematical engineering knowledge students have following their A-levels and the level of information a first year student will need in their undergraduate mechanics course.
This student friendly workbook addresses mathematical topics using SONG - a combination of Symbolic, Oral, Numerical and Graphical approaches. The text helps to develop key skills, communication both written and oral, the use of information technology, problem solving and mathematical modelling. The overall structure aims to help students take responsibility for their own learning, by emphasizing the use of self-assessment, thereby enabling them to become critical, reflective and continuing learners - an essential skill in this fast-changing world. The material in this book has been successfully used by the authors over many years of teaching the subject at Sheffield Hallam University. Their SONG approach is somewhat broader than the traditionally symbolic based approach and readers will find it more in the same vein as the Calculus Reform movement in the USA.

Designed to provide engineers with quick-access mathematical formulas for their specialties, the new Fourth Edition includes 20% more information than the prior edition while retaining the Handbook's unique presentation of math fundamentals. The Handbook proceeds from algebra and geometry through such advanced topics as Laplace transforms and numerical methods and concludes with basic discussions of plane curves and space curves. It is organized logically to present each math topic as a complete conceptual and visual unit. The Handbook includes abundant examples of problems in advanced math whose solutions are depicted in step-by-step detail, as well as a new glossary of math terms.
