Introductory differential equations (Fifth edition.)

'Introductory Differential Equations' provides accessible explanations and new, robust sample problems.

This valuable resource is appropriate for a first semester course in introductory ordinary differential equations (including Laplace transforms) as well as a second course in Fourier series and boundary value problems, for students with no background in the subject.

It provides the foundations to assist students in learning not only how to read and understand differential equations, but also how to read technical material in more advanced texts as they progress through their studies.
