Reviews

This volume is a great collection of essential mathematical tools and techniques used to solve problems in physics, very useful to any student of physics or research professional in the field. It is concentrated to problem-solving art and offers a large amount of problems and exercises. --Zentralblatt MATH 1239


<p>Praise for the sixth edition: <p> As to a comparison with other books of the same ilk, well, in all honesty, there are none. No other text on methods of mathematical physics is as comprehensive and as complete... -Tristan Hubsch, Howard University
