Praise for the Third Edition“Future mathematicians, scientists, and engineers should find the book to be an excellent introductory text for coursework or self-study as well as worth its shelf space for reference.”—MAA ReviewsApplied Mathematics, Fourth Edition is a thoroughly updated and revised edition on the applications of modeling and analyzing natural, social, and technological processes. The book covers a wide range of key topics in mathematical methods and modeling and highlights the connections between mathematics and the applied and natural sciences.The Fourth Edition covers both standard and modern topics, including scaling and dimensional analysis; regular and singular perturbation; calculus of variations; Green’s functions and integral equations; nonlinear wave propagation; and stability and bifurcation. The book provides extended coverage of mathematical biology, including biochemical kinetics, epidemiology, viral dynamics, and parasitic disease. DAVID LOGAN, PhD, is Willa Cather Professor of Mathematics at the University of Nebraska, Lincoln. He is also the author of An Introduction to Nonlinear Partial Differential Equations, Second Edition and Mathematical Methods in Biology, both published by Wiley.
Logan has served on the faculties at the University of Arizona, Kansas State University, and Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, and he has been affiliated with Los Alamos Scientific Laboratory, Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, and the Aerospace Research Laboratory.
