Based on a Brown University course in applied mathematics, this text is designed to prepare readers for the study of differential equations and to show them how to conduct effective literature searches. A rigorous and demanding treatment, it emphasizes nonlinear problems and focuses on specific analytical methods. 1969 edition. Reprint of the Wiley-Interscience, New York, 1969 edition.
