About this book

This book is written for students without Maths A-Level who are entering an Engineering or Applied Science degree via a preliminary year. It introduces the basic ideas of Mathematics through applications in physics and engineering, providing a firm foundation in functions and calculus for the subsequent degree. Students are encouraged to use computers and calculators effectively and to develop skills in mathematical modelling. The content and approach have been devised with university and polytechnic foundation course lecturers.
