Multivariate Calculus and Geometry
(Springer, 2014)The importance assigned to accuracy in basic mathematics courses has, initially, a useful disciplinary purpose but can, unintentionally, hinder progress if it fosters the belief that exactness is all that makes mathematics ... -
Neural Networks and Deep Learning
(Springer, 2018)Neural networks were developed to simulate the human nervous system for machine learning tasks by treating the computational units in a learning model in a manner similar to human neurons. The grand vision of neural ... -
New Introduction to Multiple Time Series Analysis
(Springer, 2005)When I worked on my Introduction to Multiple Time Series Analysis (Lu¨tkepohl (1991)), a suitable textbook for this field was not available. Given the great importance these methods have gained in applied econometric ... -
Numerical Optimization
(Springer, 2006)This is a book for people interested in solving optimization problems. Because of the wide (and growing) use of optimization in science, engineering, economics, and industry, it is essential for students and practitioners ... -
Object-Oriented Analysis, Design and Implementation
(Springer, 2015)The second edition of the book includes revisions based on the feedback received from a number of sources on the first edition. The case-study-based approach to the principles of object-oriented design has been mostly ... -
Ordinary Differential Equations
(Springer, 2012)This text is intended for the introductory three- or four-hour one-semester sophomore level differential equations course traditionally taken by students majoring in science or engineering. The prerequisite is the standard ... -
Partial Differential Equations
(Springer, 2013)This is the third edition of my textbook intended for students who wish to obtain an introduction to the theory of partial differential equations (PDEs, for short). Why is there a new edition? The answer is simple: I ... -
Particles and Nuclei
(Springer, 2015)Since the first German edition of this textbook in 1993, many extensions and corrections of the text have been added in every further edition. For the present seventh English edition, the text of several chapters and ... -
Perceptual Organization
(Springer, 2019)The goal here is to describe some of the processes underlying how the auditory, tactual and visual modalities and their combinations convert sensory inputs into two- and three-dimensional objects. Those processes are a ... -
Philosophy of Science for Scientists
(Springer, 2016)The Swedish predecessor of this book, Introduktion till Vetenskapsteorin, grew out of an urgently felt need when I was teaching philosophy of science for students of engineering, physics, biology, social science, medicine ... -
Phylogenomics
(Springer, 2017)All life on earth shares a common ancestor, and the aim of phylogenetic systematics is to reconstruct the tree or network of life. Shortly after the availability of the first protein sequences, molecular phylogenetic ... -
Physical Chemistry from a Different Angle
(Springer, 2016)Experience has shown that two fundamental thermodynamic quantities are especially difficult to grasp: entropy and chemical potential—entropy S as quantity associated with temperature T and chemical potential μ as quantity ... -
Physics from Symmetry
(Springer, 2018)In the course of studying physics I became, like any student of physics, familiar with many fundamental equations and their solutions, but I wasn’t really able to see their connection. I was thrilled when I understood ... -
Physics of Oscillations and Waves
(Springer, 2018)The University of Oslo in Norway is one of the first universities to introduce numerical methods as an integral part of almost all mathematically oriented courses for science students (first attempts started in 1997). ... -
The Physics of Semiconductors
(Springer, 2016)Semiconductor electronics is commonplace in every household. Semiconductor devices have enabled economically reasonable fiber-based optical communication, optical storage, and high-frequency amplification and have recently ... -
Plant Anatomy
(Springer, 2019)The science of plant anatomy extends back to the late seventeenth century and, by now, spans over 300 years and encompasses hundreds of thousands of reports in the scientific literature. The early plant anatomy research ... -
Plant Ecology
(Springer, 2019)The puzzle illustrates the characteristics of modern Plant Ecology which aims to relate genetic information and molecular physiology with the biological and environmental constraints of plant life across the globe. ... -
Plant Physiological Ecology
(Springer, 2008)Plant ecophysiology is an experimental science that seeks to describe the physiological mechanisms underlying ecological observations. In other words, ecophysiologists, or physiological ecologists, address ecological ... -
Plant Physiology, Development and Metabolism
(Springer, 2018)Plants serve as a source for sustainable food and biofuel and also play crucial roles in maintaining human health and ecosystem. Thus, it becomes imperative to understand the mechanisms of plant growth and development. ... -
Plate Tectonics
(Springer, 2011)In the late 1960’s, Wegener’s theory of continental drift , originally conceived fi ft y years earlier, was merged with the theory of plate tectonics and the concepts gained global acceptance among geoscientists. For ...
