This guide book to mathematics contains in handbook form the fundamental working knowledge of mathematics that is needed as an everyday reference for working scientists and engineers, as well as for students. Easy to understand, and convenient to use, The Handbook of Mathematics gives concisely the information necessary to tackle most problems which occur in real applications. For the 4th edition, the concept of the book has been completely re-thought. The new emphasis is on those fields of mathematics that have become more important for the formulation and modelling of technical and natural processes, namely Numerical Mathematics, Probability Theory and Statistics, as well as Information Processing.
