Every Physics student at university will take modules in Mathematics for Physicists. This book covers modules of this type starting with some maths that should have been included in A Level syllabuses and working onto the detail required for a Batchelor's degree in Physics. This book will not be adequate for someone approaching a Maths degree, but is deliberately aimed at the maths that supports the contents of a first degree in physics.<br>This book is in keeping with the genuinely high standards expected of a Wiley science text, with 565 pages well bound into a paperback format, clear layout, ample use of sub-headings, formulae, graphs, charts and block colour. The rear of the book has answers to selected problems that are included in the text and a comprehensive subject index. The book starts with an in-depth contents sections which tells you exactly where you can find each change of subject.<br>It is also worth noting that this book is part of the Manchester Physics Series.<br>The book covers real numbers, variables and functions, including algebraic and trigonometric functions, logarithms and exponentials, differential and integral calculus, series, complex numbers, partial differentiation, vectors, determinants, matrices, eigenvalues. eigenvectors, line and multiple integrals, vector calculus, Fourier analysis, ordinary differential equations, series solutions of differential equations and partial differential equations.<br>Bearing in mind that this book is written to be understandable to people entering their first degree in physics (i.e. just having completed A Level), it is thoughtfully and purposefully presented in a straightforward manner which will benefit all students. It is worth the reminder that unless you are happy to be working at the level of mathematics detailed in  this book, physics is not the subject for you!<br>A very respectable text which all new physics students will benefit from and one possibly to start reading in the holidays before going up to uni for the first time.
