Introduction to Methods of Applied Mathematics
or
Advanced Mathematical Methods for Scientists and Engineers

by

Sean Mauch

The title is only making light of naming conventions in the sciences and is not an insult to engineers. If you want to find a good math text to learn a subject, look for books with \Introduction" and \Elementary" in the title. If it is an \Intermediate" text it will be incomprehensible. If it is \Advanced" then not only will it be incomprehensible, it will have low production qualities, i.e. a crappy typewriter font, no graphics and no examples. There is an exception to this rule when the title also contains the word \Scientists" or \Engineers". Then an advanced book may be quite suitable for actually learning the material.
