A comprehensive introduction for advanced undergraduate and graduate students. This text covers basic theory, and develops it to illustrate some of the specialised topics in current physics, applied mathematics, astrophysics and engineering. It includes exercises throughout, and will also appeal to research physicists, nuclear and electrical engineers.
