Scanning Electron Microscopy and X-Ray Microanalysis
(Springer, 2018)This is not your father’s, your mother’s, or your grandparent’s Scanning Electron Microscopy and X-Ray Microanalysis (SEMXM). But that is not to say that there is no continuity or to deny a family resemblance. SEMXM4 ... -
Statistics and Analysis of Scientific Data
(Springer, 2017)Across all sciences, a quantitative analysis of data is necessary to assess the significance of experiments, observations, and calculations. This book was written over a period of 10 years, as I developed an introductory ... -
Integrative Human Biochemistry
(Springer, 2015)Traditional lecture classes in biological sciences are being challenged by modern forms of communication. Modern communication tends to be more visual and less interpretative in nature. In lectures, the didactics are ... -
Real Analysis
(Springer, 2015)Analysis forms an essential basis of mathematics as a whole, as well as of the natural sciences, and more and more of the social sciences too. The theory of analysis (differentiation and integration) was created—after ... -
Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy and its Applications
(Springer, 2014)My first practical contact with electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) was during my postdoctoral training in the laboratory of Prof. Ron W. Fawcett at the University of Guelph, Ontario, Canada, in 1975. At that ... -
Calculus With Applications
(Springer, 2014)Our purpose in writing a calculus text has been to help students learn at first hand that mathematics is the language in which scientific ideas can be precisely formulated, that science is a source of mathematical ideas ... -
An Introduction to Statistical Learning with Applications in R
(Springer, 2017)Statistical learning refers to a set of tools for modeling and understanding complex datasets. It is a recently developed area in statistics and blends with parallel developments in computer science and, in particular, ... -
Quantum Theory for Mathematicians
(Springer, 2013)Ideas from quantum physics play important roles in many parts of modern mathematics. Many parts of representation theory, for example, are motivated by quantum mechanics, including the Wigner–Mackey theory of ... -
Principles of Musical Acoustics
(Springer, 2013)Musical acoustics is a scientific discipline that attempts to put the entire range of human musical activity under the microscope of science. Because science seeks understanding, the goal of musical acoustics is nothing ... -
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 ... -
Structure Determination by X-ray Crystallography
(Springer, 2013)We were honoured to be asked by Springer, New York to prepare a fifth edition of Structure Determination by X-ray Crystallography. First published in 1977 under the Plenum imprint, this book has received wide acclaim ... -
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 ... -
Principles of Polymer Chemistry
(Springer, 2000)This book, unlike the first and second editions, is primarily aimed to be a textbook for a graduate course in polymer chemistry and a reference book for practicing polymer chemists. The first and second editions, on the ... -
Human Chromosomes
(Springer, 2000)This book presents a comprehensive introduction to the principles of human cytogenetics and provides examples of their applications, especially those that are important in diagnostic and preventive medicine. The authors ... -
Statistical Analysis and Data Display
(Springer, 2015)Students seeking master’s degrees in applied statistics in the late 1960s and 1970s typically took a year-long sequence in statistical methods. Popular choices of the course textbook in that period prior to the availability ... -
Classical Fourier Analysis
(Springer, 2014)The great response to the publication of my book Classical and Modern Fourier Analysis in 2004 has been especially gratifying to me. I was delighted when Springer offered to publish the second edition in 2008 in two ... -
Principles of Quantum Mechanics
(Springer, 1994)Over the decade and a half since I wrote the first edition, nothing has altered my belief in the soundness of the overall approach taken here. This is based on the response of teachers, students, and my own occasional ... -
Principles of Astrophysics
(Springer, 2014)This book is designed to show how physical principles can be used at the advanced undergraduate level to understand astronomical systems such as planets, stars, galaxies, and the universe as a whole. It emerges from a ... -
Algebra
(Springer, 2002)As I see it, the graduate course in algebra must primarily prepare students to handle the algebra which they will meet in all of mathematics: topology, partial differential equations, differential geometry, algebraic ... -
Differential Equations and Their Applications
(Springer, 1993)Mathematics is playing an ever more important role in the physical and biological sciences, provoking a blurring of boundaries between scientific disciplines and a resurgence of interest in the modern as weil as the ...
