Fundamental Math and Physics for Scientists and Engineers | David Yevick, Hanna Yevick

Addresses the requirements of physics students who are reviewing undergraduate physics in preparation for the GRE or graduate comprehensive exams. Also includes additional content and features in order to appeal to a significantly broader audience. It thus provides the fundamental formulas, concepts and practical application of the core undergraduate physics curriculum while summarizing mathematics that is frequently encountered in engineering and physics calculations. As well, a highly abridged discussion of scientific programming is presented while very compact (20 or fewer lines of code) computer programs is incorporated in the text where relevant to illustrate the practical application of physical laws and principles. An ftp site offers a set of free programming and graphics software tools together with the programs appearing in the book will accompany the text.
