Excellent Text Covering a Range of Applied Mathematics Topics
Mahan's Text is an up to date exposition of applied mathematics that provides the theoretical foundations for each of the topics covered, followed by unique and insightful applications of the theory. Particularly rewarding are discussions and appications of Markov processes, Complex analysis (including some edifying applications of conformal mapping), and Wavelet Transforms among the basic tools needed by the physicist, engineer or applied mathematician. Mahan's approach is strongly motivated by connecting physical principles with the appropriate mathematical description. It is a text which can be used in-class or for self-study thereby rewarding the reader with significant problem solving capabilities on completion of each selected topic. I highly recommend this book.
