This up-to-date textbook on mathematical methods of physics is designed for a one-semester graduate or two-semester advanced undergraduate course. The formal methods are supplemented by applications that use MATHEMATICA to perform both symbolic and numerical calculations.
The book is written by a physicist lecturer who knows the difficulties involved in applying mathematics to real problems. As many as 40 exercises are included at the end of each chapter. A student CD includes a basic introduction to MATHEMATICA, notebook files for each chapter, and solutions to selected exercises.
* Free solutions manual available for lecturers at www.wiley-vch.de/supplements/
James Kelly received his BS from CalTech in 1977 and his PhD from MIT in 1981. He was an Oppenheimer Fellow at Los Alamos before joining the faculty of the University of Maryland in 1984, where he is currently a Professor. His research is primarily in experimental nuclear physics, where he is expert in data analysis and simulation, but he also often performs the calculations required to test theoretical models. His most recent topic is the electromagnetic structure of the nucleon and its low-lying excited states.
