 Rating:  - A nice big bookThis is a great complement to the K Stroud book. With Stroud, you're best off getting hold of some past papers; working out what you need to know; and getting stuck into the relevant programme. With this book, it's more of a traditional maths reference book with lots of exercises (but not enough for my liking), and is much more specifically geared towards electronics: I was gutted that missed the section on Boolean algebra in here, which you won't find in Stroud; and you won't find as nicely introduced in digital books. What I will say is that it could do with having even more electronics-specific calculations, transforms and that (until it's as fat as or fatter than K Stroud), just to bridge the gap between those awful American electronics tomes and K Stroud. As it goes, I'd say it is an essential book for all first and second year electronics students; but I'd still get a K Stroud as well - especially if you're a bit crap at maths. It's very accessible and gets the point. I can't say I've ever used the bundled CD though, I can't even remember what's on it, save to say it's not much better than the atrocious one that comes with K Stroud; but owt's better than nowt. Rating:  - Great book for Electronic/Electrical engineering studentsThis is a fantastic book for first/second year electrical/electronic engineering students! I only discovered it at the beginning of my second year, when I was having serious difficulty with my engineering maths course (culminating in my tutor saying, at one point, "if you can't do that you shouldn't be in this class"). With self motivation, this book is an invaluable tool. It covers everything you need to know for a electrical engineering maths course, from the basics such as trigonometric functions (degrees and radians, trigonometric identities), through differentiation, integration, onto the laplace transform, fourier series and transform and finally vector calculus (gradient, curl and divergence of vector fields), line and multiple integrals, and stokes theorem. The format is to give a easy to understand introduction to each topic, with worked examples, then building the worked examples up to more complex ones. There are frequent exercises throughout the book, to make sure you understand each small chunk, as well as review exercises at the end of each section. I attribute a large part of my success in second year engineering math to this book. Strongly recommended.
