Edition Statement2nd ed
Physical Descriptionviii, 238p. illus., figures
Summary, Etc.The main purpose of this second edition is essentially the same as the first edition with changes noted below. Accordingly, first we quote from the preface by Murray R. Spiegel in the first edition of this text. "This book is designed to be used either as a textbook for a formal course in vector analysis or as a  useful supplement to all current standard texts." "Each chapter begins with a clear statement of pertinent definitions, principles and theorems together with illustrated and other descriptive material. This is followed by graded sets of solved and supplementary problems....Numerous proofs of theorems and derivations of formulas are included among the solved problems. The large number of supplementary problems with answers serve as complete review of the material of each chapter." "Topics cover include the algebra and the differential and integral calculus of vectors, Stokes' theorem, the divergence theorem, and other integral theorems together with many applications drawn from various fields. Added features are the chapters on curvilinear coordinates and tensor analysis ...." "Considerable more material has been included here than can be covered in most first courses. This has been done to make the book more flexible, to provide a more useful book of reference, and to stimulate further interest in the topics." Some of the changes we have made to the first edition are as follows: (a) We expanded many of the sections to make it more accessible for our readers. (b) We reformatted the text, such as, the chapter number is included in the label of all problems and figures. (c) Many results are restated formally as Propositions and Theorems. (d) New material was added, such as, a discussion of linear dependence and linear independence, and a discussion of  "R "as a vector space.04
