The Handbook of Mathematics for Engineers and Scientists covers the main fields of mathematics and focuses on the methods used for obtaining solutions of various classes of mathematical equations that underlie the mathematical modeling of numerous phenomena and processes in science and technology. To accommodate different mathematical backgrounds, the preeminent authors outline the material in a simplified, schematic manner, avoiding special terminology wherever possible.
Organized in ascending order of complexity, the material is divided into two parts. The first part is a coherent survey of the most important definitions, formulas, equations, methods, and theorems. It covers arithmetic, elementary and analytic geometry, algebra, differential and integral calculus, special functions, calculus of variations, and probability theory. Numerous specific examples clarify the methods for solving problems and equations. The second part provides many in-depth mathematical tables, including those of exact solutions of various types of equations.
This concise, comprehensive compendium of mathematical definitions, formulas, and theorems provides the foundation for exploring scientific and technological phenomena.

Choice Review
An essential acquisition for the desert-island engineer, this tome compresses, between two not very proximate covers, much of the content one might ordinarily find in a gathering of 20 textbooks chosen to carry an applied mathematics student all the way from grade-school arithmetic through non-linear partial differential equations. In this handbook by Polyanin and Manzhirov (both, Russian Academy of Sciences, Moscow), their evidently nearly infinite industry certainly earns our admiration. Despite the intentional absence of proofs, this "handbook" offers condensed exposition, not merely collated facts. This raises the question: who, besides denizens of desert islands, will read such a book? For any given chapter, students would probably prefer a more leisurely, complete, and conceptual book-length account. This unavoidable concision means readers will find merely an excellent source for learning subjects they already know well. The book does offer teachers many possible lessons in outline or ready-made extended exercises, simply by asking students to supply the details the authors have omitted. Although not acquiring this book will leave no critical gap in any reasonably strong collection, some readers may indeed appreciate the perspective offered by having a unified treatment of such a wide span of material. Summing Up: Recommended. Lower-division undergraduates through professionals; two-year technical program students. D. V. Feldman University of New Hampshire
