Elementary Diffential Equations with Boundary Value Problems

by Charles Henry Edwards, David E. Penney

The Sixth Edition of this acclaimed differential equations book remains the same classic volume it's always been, but has been polished and sharpened to serve readers even more effectively. Offers precise and clear-cut statements of fundamental existence and uniqueness theorems to allow understanding of their role in this subject. Features a strong numerical approach that emphasizes that the effective and reliable use of numerical methods often requires preliminary analysis using standard elementary techniques. Inserts new graphics and text where needed for improved accessibility. A useful reference for readers who need to brush up on differential equations.

stopped updating but i read all the sections on the syllabus! not a fun class maybe cool if i was into physical engineering but a fella like me only cares about 1s and 0s (no i will not acknowledge circuit modeling). i cant wait to give this book to dave so he can tell me how freaking easy it is and how dumb i am. i love that kid im so excited to see him on friday😁 good book tho very thorough. apparently this book has family lore dr tran said hes been teaching from this book for like 20 sum years?? i can see why tho i like the modeling sections and how it teaches you how you use my favorite guilty pleasure language (matlab😋) to model the equations

As a math textbook it was pretty clear. I would have liked more examples and there were some concepts that I had to look up online to understand. But overall, made differential equations pretty doable.

Fallen way behind on the surge of textbooks I've been rereading over the last two weeks. I had the custom UIUC edition for this one, which was marred by missing sections. While the general examples and problems were pretty strong in the text, I found the applications sections to be a bit too unfocused (everything from statistics to biology to physics appeared) for learning. The overuse of boldfaced terms and the lack of too many boxed procedures or formulae made the book good to learn from, but not really useful as a reference later.

Used this as a textbook for a Differential Equations class at Washington University in St. Louis when I was an adjunct there.
