Deepen and broaden subject knowledge to set yourself up for future success Foundation Maths 7th Edition by Croft and Davison has been written for students taking higher and further education courses who may not have specialised in mathematics on post-16 qualifications, and who require a working knowledge of mathematical and statistical tools. By providing careful and steady guidance in mathematical methods along with a wealth of practice exercises to improve your maths skills, Foundation Maths imparts confidence in its readers. For students with established mathematical expertise, this book will be an ideal revision and reference guide. The style of the book also makes it suitable for self-study and distance learning with self-assessment questions and worked examples throughout. Foundation Maths is ideally suited for students studying marketing, business studies, management, science, engineering, social science, geography, combined studies and design. Features: Mathematical processes described in everyday language. Key points highlighting important results for easy reference Worked examples included throughout the book to reinforce learning. Self-assessment questions to test understanding of important concepts, with answers provided at the back of the book. Demanding Challenge Exercises included at the end of chapters stretch the keenest of students Test and assignment exercises with answers provided in a lecturer's Solutions Manual available for download at go.pearson.com/uk/he/resources, allow lecturers to set regular work throughout the course A companion website containing a student support pack and video tutorials, as well as PowerPoint slides for lecturers, can be found at go.pearson.com/uk/he/resources New to this edition: A new section explains the importance of developing a thorough mathematical foundation in order to take advantage of and exploit the full capability of mathematical and statistical technology used in higher education and in the workplace Extensive sections throughout the book illustrate how readily-available computer software and apps can be used to perform mathematical and statistical calculations, particularly those involving algebra, calculus, graph plotting and data analysis There are revised, enhanced sections on histograms and factorisation of quadratic expressions The new edition is fully integrated with MyLab Math, a powerful online homework, tutorial and self-study system that contains over 1400 exercises that can be assigned or used for student practice, tests and homework Anthony Croft has taught mathematics in further and higher education institutions for over thirty years. During this time he has championed the development of mathematics support for the many students who find the transition from school to university mathematics particularly difficult. In 2008 he was awarded a National Teaching Fellowship in recognition of his work in this field. He has authored many successful mathematics textbooks, including several for engineering students. He was jointly awarded the IMA Gold Medal 2016 for his outstanding contribution to mathematics education. Robert Davison has thirty years' experience teaching mathematics in both further and higher education. He has authored many successful mathematics textbooks, including several for engineering students.

Engineering Mathematics is the unparalleled undergraduate textbook for students of electrical, electronic, communications and systems engineering. Tried and tested over many years, this widely used textbook is now in its 5th edition, having been fully updated and revised. This new edition includes an even greater emphasis on the application of mathematics within a range of engineering contexts. It features detailed explanation of why a technique is important to engineers. In addition, it provides essential guidance in how to use mathematics to solve engineering problems. This approach ensures a deep and practical understanding of the role of mathematics in modern engineering.

A market-leading text providing a fundamental source of knowledge on key mathematical concepts every engineer needs. Mathematics for Engineers, 5th edition by Croft and Davidson, is the ultimate textbook in the field that will offer you the tools and support you need to develop vital mathematical skills for your profession. Practical, informal, and accessible, this book covers all requirements for a first-year engineering maths course, together with introductory material for even more advanced topics. Although the breadth of knowledge introduced requires a firm grasp of algebra to perform the techniques of calculus, the textbook will guide you through the foundations of the discipline and help you develop and nurture your skills gradually, introducing more complex concepts as you progress through the chapters. The latest edition combines traditional learning methods with interactive examples that will further support your learning, encouraging you to participate actively in the learning process and perform the relevant calculations to work through them. The main features also include: A brief introduction of the material in each chapter, followed by an explanation of the concepts presented. Examples and applications in each chapter that will help you cement your knowledge on the topics, encouraging you to participate in the problem-solving process. Highlighted key points and important results, helping you remember what you study - especially during the revision process.
