About the Book

Ledder's innovative, student-centered approach reflects recent research on successful learning by emphasizing connections between new and familiar concepts and by engaging students in a dialogue with the material. Though streamlined, this text is also flexible enough to support a variety of teaching goals, in part through optional topics that give instructors considerable freedom in customizing their courses. Linear algebra is presented in self-contained sections to accommodate both courses that have a linear algebra prerequisite and those that do not. Throughout the text, a wide variety of examples from the physical, life and social sciences, among other areas, are employed to enhance student learning. In-depth model problems drawn from everyday experience highlight the key concepts or methods in each section. Other innovative features of the text include instant exercises that allow students to quickly test new skills and case studies that further explore the powerful problem-solving capability of differential equations. Readers will learn not only how to solve differential equations, but also how to apply their knowledge to areas in mathematics and beyond.
