Handbook of Mathematical Formulas and Integrals

Book excerpt: If there is a formula to solve a given problem in mathematics, it can be found in Alan Jeffrey's Handbook of Mathematical Formulas and Integrals. Thanks to its unique thumb-tab indexing feature, answers are easy to find based upon the type of problem they solve. The handbook covers important formulas, functions, relations, and methods from algebra, trigonomic and exponential functions, combinatorics, probability, matrix theory, calculus and vector calculus, both ordinary and partial differential equations, Fourier series, orthogonal polynomials, and Laplace transforms. Equations are computer-validated with Scientific WorkPlace and Mathematica. -- Back cover
