✦ Synopsis

19th edition. — 2000. — 671 p.

For the Students of Degree and Diploma Courses, SI units.

The object of this book is to present the subject matter in a most concise, compact, to-the-point and lucid manner. The book will provide the students a necessary insight into the subject, and will prepare them adequately for their examinations.
To make the book more useful at all levels, it has been written in an easy style and such a simple
manner, that even an average student can grasp the subject independently. Every carе has been taken to make the book as self-explanatory as possible throughout. The rigorous mathematical steps have been replaced by simple treatments. The subject matter has been amply illustrated by incorporating a good number of solved and well graded examples of almost every variety. Most of these examples are taken from the recent examination papers of Indian as well as foreign universities and professional examining bodies, to make the students familiar with the types of questions, usually, set in their examinations. At the end of each topic, a few exercises have been added, for the students to solve them independently. Answer, along with hints wherever necessary, have been provided.
