Pocket Book of Integrals and Mathematical Formulas, Third Edition by Ronald J. Tallarida (Temple University School of Medicine, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA)
Pocket Book of Integrals and Mathematical Formulas, a revision of a very successful pocket book, provides a handy desk-top reference for engineers and scientists seeking essential formulas, concepts, and definitions. Topics range from pre-calculus to vector analysis and from Fourier transforms to statistics.
This third edition contains:
A new chapter on business and financial mathematics - providing information on progressions, especially geometric progressions, which is the basis for many formulas related to annuities, growth of funds, and interest payments
Additional topics in statistics - including sample size calculations for testing differences and proportions
Featuring numerical tables of probability distributions, the book also includes
Discussions on formula listings and differential equations
Fourier series
Laplace and z-transforms
Vector analysis
Orthogonal polynomials
Many other handbooks go too far in their attempts, essentially mimicking larger comprehensive texts they try to summarize. The result is a reference less detailed than the full texts and too big to be conveniently portable. Most scientists do not carry them.
Through a careful selection of topics and detail, Pocket Book of Integrals and Mathematical Formulas truly meets the needs of engineers and scientists - a convenient, usable supplementary text providing worked examples where most necessary. Its comprehensive information and convenient arrangement of tables makes it an essential and easy to use reference.
