 The only maths book you will ever need February 21, 2008
4 out of 4 found this review helpful
I have been out of education for 10 years before I started my degree so I was very apprehensive about the maths. This book works wonders especially the DVD you get with it to help problem solve. This is such a well structured book with lots of worked examples.
A must have for Engineering students
Simply outstanding... September 30, 2007

This book is superb. It's the best book on mathematics I own and I have quite a few. It's exceptional because it graduates gently from one topic to another and each topic is explained clearly from start to finish through easy to follow steps. I can't recommend it highly enough.
Unrivalled; clear, concise and well written. August 10, 2007

This book is superb, I can only fault its size but the depth of coverage warrants such mammoth dimensions. The material covered within is done so in a structured fashion, ensuring the reader can actually grasp the material as appose to just learning the methodology. I have not had to use this book as a standalone revision tool but in conjunction with my maths notes, it is unbeatable. The exercise problems can get a bit tedious and some of the leaps in difficulty are inexplicable but a little extra searching and practice will iron out any reservations. If you are studying any engineering degree I would seriously recommend splashing the cash, you may not use it extensively at first but having it as a resource has been invaluable for me.

This is undoubtedly a good book but it put me to sleep at times as I could not see how all these calculations would be useful to me when I graduated. I assumed an Engineering Math book would have examples from Engineering cases but they were few and far between. I did find some other books that did this in the library.
This is a good book for learning by heart how to do these things but I think I remember about 20% of it now that the exam is over! I wanted to understand it not learn it by heart. :(
Stroud is massive! It has practically an entire intro to math book at the start which at best is good for a glance because, as an Engineer, my Math is OK. It is a huge big clunking book which broke my back carrying it but was useful none the less.
Brilliant! It got me through BSc and is helping me remember it as well! May 14, 2007

I first bought Ken Stroud's book back in 1987, and found it extremely useful to help me get through my BSc (Hons) degree in microelectronics and computing.
Now I have bought the 6th edition to help me revise my maths knowledge, and it is helping me already with some post-graduate study.
The programme method really helps in self-study.
The updating has helped keep it current, and it is very readable!!
For undergraduate engineering maths study, this is the book that is a must have!
