Summary:

Real Exponential, Logarithmic, and Trigonometric Functions for Physicists builds on the author's previous books focused on mathematics for scientists. This new work presents a rigorous study of the underlying mathematical functions used in physics and provides its readers a deeper understanding for those studying and practicing the physical sciences. This in-depth study: -- Delivers a thorough introduction to the math behind commonly used functions in physics and other disciplines -- Provides readers with a strong foundation for developing analytic and problem-solving skills -- Applies real life examples to bring theory to life for science students Real Exponential, Logarithmic, and Trigonometric Functions for Physicists is a valuable guide for physics and math students, and is a concise text for instructors teaching in courses on number theory and other areas of the sciences where mathematics is needed.
