About this product

Product Information

For sophomore-level courses in Differential Equations and Linear Algebra. Extensively rewritten throughout, the Second Edition of this flexible text features a seamless integration of linear algebra into the discipline of differential equations. Abundant computer graphics, IDE interactive illustration software, and well-thought-out problem sets make it an excellent choice for either the combination DE/LA course or pure differential equations courses"." The authors' consistent, reader-friendly presentation encourages students to think both quantitatively and qualitatively when approaching differential equations -- and reinforces concepts using similar methods to solve various systems (algebraic, differential, and iterative).

  • Standard College Math Book

    This book is nicely written, good use of spacing, fonts and colors. Compared to how our professor teaches, this book takes an odd approach to it's example problems. It has very alternate methods to solving the problems compared to what we are being taught in class. The explanations it gives skip a lot of the basic steps, which I find myself needing sometimes. Overall it's a good math book though, I've had worse.

  • Required Text for Calculus class

    This Book has good examples and solid contend for learning differential equations and linear Algebra.

  • great price

    cheap affordable price with the same material in the book. it has a soft cover and mostly black and white in the book but besides that it is the same thing made with cheaper material making this book way more affordable then the one sold in book stores at colleges

  • Differential Equations & Linear Algebra by Beverly H. W

    I've had better math book than this one. The only thing that i like about this book is that it is light! Other than that...nah. I just don't like it.
