Basic Mathematics for Chemists, Second Edition is an introductory textbook aimed at students in the chemical sciences. Written by a chemist for chemists, this textbook demystifies the mathematics that chemists need to know and shows how, where and why it is used in practice. Through many examples, problems and applications, this book guides the reader from basic mathematical principles to complex numbers, vectors, determinants and matrices. The philosophy of the second edition remains the same as the first, to introduce basic concepts in the context of the chemistry in which they are used. Basic Mathematics for Chemists, Second Edition features:
* A carefully structured text, assuming little prior knowledge of mathematics.
* A clear and direct approach leading chemists through the mathematics they need to know.
* Many examples, problems and applications relating the mathematics to real-world chemistry.
* New and expanded coverage of complex numbers, vectors, determinants and matrices.
Mathematik für Chemiker wird hier anhand von Anwendungsbeispielen, Datenmaterial und Problemstellungen aus der Praxis anschaulich erklärt. Nur geringe Vorkenntnisse werden vorausgesetzt. Neben den Grundlagen wie Gleichungen und Funktionen sowie spezielleren Kapiteln wie Logarithmen und Winkelfunktionen wird in dieser neuen Auflage auch die Vektor- und Matrizenrechnung behandelt.
