About the book

The modern engineer often has to do wilh prohlems that require a sound mathematical backgronnd and set skills in the use of diverse mathematical methods. Expanding the mathematical outlook of the engineer contributes appreciably to new advances in technology. The theory of functions of a complex variable, operational calculus, and stability theory are most important for applications. 

The present text is designed for students of engineering colleges and also for practicing engineers who feel a need to refresh their knowledge of such important areas of mathematics. Each section of the text starts out with a brief review of the essentials of theory (propositions, definitions,formulas). This is followed by examples with detailed solutions and exercises. The book contains about 1000 examples and problems to be solved by the student.
