This original Dover publication boasts a title suggesting that it is a blueprint for mathematical modeling. On cracking open the text I expected to find out what gamut of problems are approached and at what level the mathematics is. I was disappointed to find contents more like that REA's Problem Solvers series: bluntly stated problems immediately following by a complete solution. There is no discussion of notation, theory, or building up a model from a real world situation.
