Product Details
From the Preface: "The text can be used by students with various levels of preparation. However, the typical student is probably a first-year graduate student in engineering, one of the formal sciences, or mathematics. It is also possible to use this book as a text for a senior-level course. In order to facilitate students with varying backgrounds, a number of appendices covering useful mathematical topics have been included. Moreover, there has also been an attempt to make the pace in the beginning more gradual than that of later chapters."
