Edelen is currently Professor of Mathematics and Astronomy at the Center for the Application of Mathematics at Lehigh University, Bethlehem, Pennsylvania, and Chairman of the Undergraduate Applied Mathematics Group. Prior to this position, he taught at Purdue University, was a staff mathematician at the RAND Corporation, and held the positions of staff engineer and research and development scientist in industry. Dr. Edelen has also authored three books on mathematical physics. He is a fellow of the Royal Astronomical Society and a member of the Tensor Society of Japan and the Board of Editors of the International Journal of Engineering Science. He holds B.E.S., M.S.E. and Ph.D. degrees from Johns Hopkins University. Presently, Anastasios D. Kydoniefs is associate professor at the Center for the Application of Mathematics, Lehigh University, Bethlehem, Pennsylvania. In addition to his teaching experience, he has been a senior research assistant and a university research fellow at the University of Nottingham, England. Born in Greece, Dr. Kydoniefs received his B.Sc. degree from the University of Athens, Greece and his M.Sc. and Ph.D. degrees from the University of Nottingham, England. EXCERPT: Preface to the Second Edition - This edition differs from the first in several respects. First, we have corrected the errors and misprints that occur in the first edition and have simplified the proofs at a number of points. We have added a number of worked numerical examples in those places where the students appear to need further clarification by way of explicit calculation. The last lecture of the first edition has been replaced by a new lecture on least squares and weighted least squares solutions of inhomogeneous linear systems. Classroom experience over the past few years has shown that this material is more useful to students in science and engineering than the short introduction to control theory given in the last lecture of the first edition. Finally, we have added a significant number of additional numerical problems at the end of the book. We deem that sufficient problems are now included to cover, without repetition, the assignments for two consecutive years of two semesters each . . . Size: 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall.

Shop-Beschreibung

For a good portion of the 1990's, our family was interested in the idea of entering the used book business. We are all avid readers, book lovers, and book collectors who cannot pass a bookstore without popping in. Family trips to the library and our local used bookstore were a regularity while growing up. With each of us having interests in different genres (with a little overlapping here and there), we cover a lot of bases. The thought of having a store of our own was appealing, and the hunt was on - both for stock and a location. We thought to combine under one roof many different things that would appeal to readers and book lovers. Not only used books, but some new items as well. Bookmarks (to ward off dog-eared pages), bookends (to keep those out-of-control collections under control), bookplates (to label books on the "Can I borrow that?" circuit to ensure that they always found their way home), book repair tape (to lend a helping hand to collectors with tattered favourites in their collections), and so on. With an interest in book-themed knick knacks as well, we had two sides to our would-be business: books and knick-knacks. Hence the business was born. In the early part of 1998 we bought a commercial property, and in the summer we first opened our doors in a storefront in Uxbridge, Ontario, Canada. With start-up stock consisting of a garage full of books hand-picked for just such a venture that we purchased from someone who changed their plans, we were in business. For several years we operated in this storefront, growing our business and learning about the industry and the backbone of it - the customers. It was very satisfying to be present at the end of someone's book quest, as we were quite often. Many a time we heard shouts of joy from somewhere in the shop as customers happened upon just what they'd been looking for (oftentimes for quite a while). At other times, people would approach us with bits and pieces of information that they remembered from long ago favourites in hopes that we could at least help them come up with an author or title to help in their search, which we often times did, with the book in hand. And when we couldn't come up with anything on our own, we would pick the brains of other customers in conversation, or turn to the internet for help for them. For us, quality and selection of stock go hand-in-hand with customer service. One isn't much good without the other. But times, people, places, and lives change and after several years in our storefront we made a change of our own - in 2004 we relocated to the internet. Now a home-based business in Oshawa, Ontario, Canada, we are gradually bringing our inventory online here. We carry used paperbacks, hardbacks, and magazines for both adults and children. We have thousands upon thousands of books that are not yet listed for sale on the internet, but are gradually making their way there.
