This concise, single-source survey of all the mathematics most useful in industry, provides graduating seniors or MS students with a last chance to prepare for the marketplace. Typically, such students are well grounded in the fundamentals of mathematics but not in its practice. They usually have little experience in modeling or in the particular extensions of mathematics useful in industrial problems—e.g., they may know power series but not the z-transform, orthogonal matrices but not factor analysis, Laplace transforms but not Bode Plots. Likewise, they usually have no experience with problems incorporating the unit $. Mathematicians in industry must be able to see their work from an economic viewpoint. They must be able to communicate with engineers using their common dialect, the dialect of this book.
