Students plod through Applied Math graduate courses with desk tops groaning under many supplementary texts - linear algebra, Functional Analysis and some Upper-level Physics/ Electrical Engineering books. Learning a new topic often involves frantic hunting through numerous texts to refresh one's mem

โฆ Synopsis
For physics students interested in the mathematics they use, and for math students interested in seeing how some of the ideas of their discipline find realization in an applied setting. The presentation strikes a balance between formalism and application, between abstract and concrete. The interconnections among the various topics are clarified both by the use of vector spaces as a central unifying theme, recurring throughout the book, and by putting ideas into their historical context. Enough of the essential formalism is included to make the presentation self-contained
