Elementary Differential Equations and Boundary Value Problems , 7th Edition Course Advantage Edition |
| William E. Boyce (Edward P. Hamilton Professor Emeritus); Richard C. DiPrima (formerly Eliza Ricketts Foundation Professor, Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute) |
| ·A Flexible approach. Self-contained chapters allow instructors to customize the selection, order, and depth of chapters. ·Sound and accurate exposition of theory. Special attention is made to methods of solution, analysis, and approximation. ·Outstanding exercise sets. Boyce/DiPrima remains unrivaled in quantity, variety, and range providing great flexibility in homework assignments. ·Use of technology, illustrations, and problem sets. These pedagogical applications help students develop an intuitive understanding of the material. ·Historical footnotes. The footnotes allow the student to trace the development of the discipline and identify outstanding individual contributions. ·New technological icon: This new icon marks over 450 technologically intensive problems that are integrated throughout the text. ·An earlier emphasis on the modeling process and the basic ideas of stability and instability: Emphasizing these key ideas in Chapter 1 immediately illustrates the importance and usefulness of Differential Equations. ·New section on numerical approximations: Section 2.7 introduces Eulers method earlier than in previous editions. ·The matrix review in Chapter 7 is simplified: The more advanced material on repeated eigenvalues and diagonalization has been moved to later sections. ·A full Instructors Solutions Manual is now available to instructors on the Boyce/DiPrima website at www.wiley.com/college/boyce. ·Chapter 10 has been reorganized: A new section (Section 10.1) has been included on two-point boundary value problems for ordinary differential equations. This material can then be called on as the method of separation of variables is developed for partial differential equations.
