It covers a wide range of physical processes and phenomena drawn from various disciplines and clearly illuminates the link between the physical system being modeled and the mathematical expression that results. This second edition incorporates the use of Mathematica in various applications. It also includes new examples on HIV, the rate of carbon dioxide emission to the atmosphere, the manufacture of silicon chips, and the dynamics of hot air balloons and rockets ER -
