Description

This new adaptation of Arfken and Weber’s bestselling Mathematical Methods for Physicists, Fifth Edition, is the most comprehensive, modern, and accessible reference for using mathematics to solve physics problems.REVIEWERS SAY: “Examples are excellent. They cover a wide range of physics problems.” –Bing Zhou, University of Michigan”The ideas are communicated very well and it is easy to understand…It has a more modern treatment than most, has a very complete range of topics and each is treated in sufficient detail….I’m not aware of another better book at this level…” –Gary Wysin, Kansas State UniversityThis is a more accessible version of Arken/Weber’s blockbuster reference, which already has more than 13,000 sales worldwideMany more detailed, worked-out examples illustrate how to use and apply mathematical techniques to solve physics problemsMore frequent and thorough explanations help readers understand, recall, and apply the theoryNew introductions and review material provide context and extra support for key ideasMany more routine problems reinforce basic, foundational concepts and computations

⭐If I were to hypothetically agree to a threat that states the following: all of your friends will be murdered in front of you if you don’t get an A by using Boas’ Math Methods book. Alternatively you can use Weber and Arfken and only be expected to pass. Which will it be?I would start reading boas in a heartbeat. This book has post section problems that, even if you read every word in that section, you wouldn’t know how to start. 1.7 on curl, the first question is to show that something is irrotational and another this is solenoidal(or vise versa). But nowhere in the section did it give an example of what a solenoidal cross product looks like. This book has proofs and only proofs. It is difficult beyond need and doesn’t go very in depth over most topics. I may just be dense, but I’ve never had a book that made me as frustrated as this one due to a lack of explanations. The delivering of the book itself was great hopefully this doesn’t knock the seller. But Weber and Arfken are mean people. This book is awful.

⭐Great book, great seller. The book came earlier than expected, and quality is great as well. I expected international edition with maybe poor paper and print quality as it was cheap. However, the book is original with great paper and printing quality. Thanks to the sellers!

⭐Missing pages. Missing parts of the index, the table of contents, and some pages within the different chapters. I am sure it is a good book, but it is difficult to navigate without a proper index.

⭐Very poor condition, torn pages, cover damaged, very dirty. I threw it in the trash

⭐This book is perfect for my needs. It is just what I needed to review my mathematical skills for my Master in Physics.

⭐Perfect!

⭐Great Book!!!!

⭐Strengths: – Fairly complete coverage of the various properties of special functions. The introduction of these subjects is not good, but one could use it as a refrence for formulas.Weaknesses: – Topic selection and rigor are weak. Many important areas of mathematical physics are skipped over, or short changed. For example, the section on tensors is far too short. In addition, everything is introduced in index notation instead of coordinate free form. Also, the group theory section is very weak (not to mention short). The rotation group and lorentz group are discussed briefly, but there is no systematic introduction to lie groups or other important topics. – The book seems to focus on special functions, and solving differential equations. However, it does not introduce hilbert spaces well, and therefore the presentation seems like a bewildering array of bessel this and fourier that, without anything to tie it all together.Overall, I’d say the book sacrifices depth by covering too many topics. If you want to really succeed you’re going to need a full course each on linear (& some multilnear) algebra, mutlivariable calc & vector analysis, differential equations, complex analysis, differential geometry and group theory. If you want a condensed version, get byron and fuller. It’s written systematically, and strikes (in my opinion) a perfect balance between rigor and pragmatism.

⭐These is an excellent textbhook. It is user friently. Hoping that aspiring physicist can have an access to it.

⭐Excellent book and supplier

⭐Crisp and dense. Baos is much better for beginners.
