Advanced Mathematics for Engineering Students: The Essential Toolbox provides a concise treatment for applied mathematics. Derived from two semester advanced mathematics courses at the author's university, the book delivers the mathematical foundation needed in an engineering program of study. Other treatments typically provide a thorough but somewhat complicated presentation where students do not appreciate the application. This book focuses on the development of tools to solve most types of mathematical problems that arise in engineering - a "toolbox� for the engineer. It provides an important foundation but goes one step further and demonstrates the practical use of new technology for applied analysis with commercial software packages (e.g., algebraic, numerical and statistical).

Prudil, Andrew
Dr. Andrew Prudil Ph.D., PEng, graduated from the Queen's University Kingston in 2009 with a BASc degree in Engineering Physics with an emphasis on electrical engineering. In 2013 Andrew completed his PhD developing computational models of nuclear fuel behavior under the supervision of Dr. Lewis and P. Chan in the Chemistry and Chemical Engineering Department at the Royal Military College of Canada. Currently Andrew is a Nuclear Fuel Safety Research Scientist in the Computational Techniques group at Canadian Nuclear Laboratories in Chalk River. Andrew has published numerous peer reviewed papers related to nuclear fuel. He is an active member of the Canadian Nuclear Society, the Professional Engineers of Ontario, and adjunct professor at Ontario Tech in Oshawa.

Lewis, Brent J
Dr. Brent Lewis PhD, PEng is retired Dean, Faculty of Energy Systems and Nuclear Science, University of Ontario Institute of Technology (2013-2015); Professor and UNENE/NSERC Industrial Research Chair, Royal Military College of Canada (RMC) (1988-2013), Scientist and Section Head, Chalk River Laboratories (1980-1988). Dr. Lewis has authored 360 journal articles, conference proceedings and reports, has consulted extensively for the domestic and international nuclear fuel community, and participated in the severe accident research program of France's Commissariat à l'Energie Atomique in 1994-1995. He has also served on various committees and working groups, including several Standards Committees, the Executive Committee of the Material Science and Technology Division for the American Nuclear Society (ANS), the International Commission on Radiological Protection, the International Organization for Standardization, the International Space Station Multilateral Radiation Health Working Group for the Canadian Space Agency, UNENE and COG. As a result of his research work, he has received several awards from the ANS. Dr. Lewis was appointed a Fellow of the CNS in 2002.
