dc.description.abstract | 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 classical
techniques of applied mathematics. This renewal of interest, both in research
and teaching, has led to the establishment of the series: Texts in Applied
Mathematics (TAM).
The development of new courses is a natural consequence of a high Ievel
of excitement on the research frontier as newer techniques, such as numerical
and symbolic computer systems, dynamical systems, and chaos, mix with and
reinforce the traditional methods of applied mathematics. Thus, the purpose
of this textbook series is to meet the current and future needs of these
advances and encourage the teaching of new courses.
T AM will publish textbooks suitable for use in advanced undergraduate
and beginning graduate courses, and will complement the Applied Mathematical
Seiences ( AMS) series, which will focus on advanced textbooks and
research Ievel monographs. | en_US |
