Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:

'Engineering Nathematics' presents a logical topic progression, rather than following the structure of a particular syllabus. However, coverage of this edition has been carefully matched to the mathematics units within the 2007 BTEC national specifications.

Includes index.
