"This book contains a broad treatment of partial differential equations that arise in the sciences and engineering, particularly emphasizing the analytical solution techniques. In each chapter the author discusses the important applications that lead to the class of equations to be studied, presents different methods for tackling these equations, and concludes with a selection of instructive problems. A relevant bibliography has also been included at the end of this book." "Students and researchers in the sciences and engineering will find this book useful."--Jacket
