"Donald McQuarrie has produced a masterpiece that anyone will want to have handy when confronted with the need to perform serious mathematical analyses. Beautifully illustrated with two-color graphical side bars that emphasize the principles presented in the text, and accompanied by vignettes of the lives of various mathematicians that almost make them seem human, this work is as appealing as any reference work you might imagine on this topic...I am grateful that this book has arrived to join the pantheon of needed and treasured reference texts." --C&E News "McQuarrie is Arfken done right." --Jerome Percus, New York University "McQuarrie is both an experienced textbook author and a distinguished theoretical chemist, and he has used his twin talents to produce an outstanding book... There is more than enough material for a rigorous two-semester course, but it could be selectively covered in a single semester. In either case the students will acquire an excellent reference text. I will place it on my bookshelf where I can easily reach it. I am sure I will refer to it often." --Journal of Chemical Education "McQuarrie's Mathematical Methods for Scientists and Engineers is a well-written, carefully conceived panorama of an extensive mathematical landscape. From asymptotic analysis to linear algebra to partial differential equations and complex variables, McQuarrie provides relevant background, physical and mathematical intuition and motivation, and just the right dose of mathematical rigor to get the ideas across effectively. The large collection of examples and exercises will prove indispensable for teaching and learning the material." --Dennis DeTurck, University of Pennsylvania "This is a beautifully produced book...that makes the physical act of reading effortless and pleasurable. McQuarrie has matched this typographic clarity with a writing style that is equally inviting: informal, straightforward and direct, altogether calm and unimposing...As I went through this book, in every chapter, not only could I see myself teaching out of this book, I found myself wanting to. Seldom does a book motivate me in that way, and I think students, too, will be drawn in by its clear and accessible approach to some of the most essential mathematical ideas used by scientists." --American Journal of Physics, November 2004 "Written for students with a background in calculus, this text introduces non-elementary functions, discusses complex numbers and properties of functions of complex variables, applies vector notation to problems in analytic geometry, and discusses vector calculus. Some 3,000 chapter problems are included, along with many MATLAB commands." --SciTech Book News
