Description
Lomen/Lovelock present differential equations as a natural extension of calculus, and encourage students to see them as a natural tool for investigating many aspects of science and engineering. The book provides lively reading with compelling applications, projects and experiments that supply students with opportunities to explore the differential equation and the process it models. Lomen/Lovelock suggest throughout the text that students employ technology as an instrument to check, discover and interpret the behavior of solutions.
Appropriate for Sophmore courses in Junior Colleges, State Schools and Universities.
