Reviews
"Diese drei Bände resultieren aus einem der Computerrevolution Rechnung tragenden Reformprojekt der Chalmers University of Technology mit wesentlichen Schwerpunkten in den Anwendungen, dem symbolischen und numerischen Rechnen, Modellierungen, einem konstruktiven Zugang (ermöglicht auch durch Verwendung anderer Stetig- und Differenzierbarkeitsbegriffe im Sinne von Lipschitz), unter Einbeziehung von auf Matlab basierenden Softwareprogrammen auf verschiedenen Komplexitätsstufen, mit einer eigenen Website (http: /www.phi.chalmers.se/bodysoul/), und stellen einer (laut verbreiteter Meinung seit Gödels Unvollständigkeitssatz immer größer werdenden) Trennung zwischen symbolischen und konstruktiven Zugängen zur Mathematik gegensteuemde, gelungene Synthese zwischen Theorie und Praxis dar, ergänzt durch viele schöne, aufschlußreiche Leitsätze und -motive, begleitet von vielen erhellenden historisch-philosophischen Kommentaren. …..Die Darstellung ist induktiv, motivierend ("Beweis-Satz", statt "Satz-Beweis"), mit stärkerem Quantitativbezug wichtiger Begriffe (was auch konstruktive "leichte" Beweise grundlegender Resultate ermöglicht), präzise und übersichtlich, anregend durch viele konkrete Beispiele aus der Praxis, Tabellen, Berechnungen, Übungsaufgaben mit Betonung auf Projektarbeit und Präsentation, vermittelt nicht nur Wissen sondern auch Können und eignet sich daher sehr gut zum Selbststudium."H.Rindler, Monatshefte für Mathematik 144, Issue 1, 2005"... Insgesamt aber gefällt die Konzeption von Eriksson, Estep und Johnson und sollte für jeden Lehrenden Anlass sein, die Lehrinhalte seiner Vorlesung kritisch zu hinterfragen, allen Ballast über Bord zu werfen und moderne numerische Methoden zu integrieren. Jeder Lehrende wird gewiss von einigen der in "Body and Soul" präsentierten Ideen profitieren und dadurch seine Lehrveranstaltung interessanter gestalten können."H.-G.Roos, ZAMM, Zeitschrift für Angewandte Mathematik und Mechanik 84, No. 10-11, 772-773 (2004)

Synopsis
Applied Mathematics: Body & Soul is a mathematics education reform project developed at Chalmers University of Technology and includes a series of volumes and software. The program is motivated by the computer revolution opening new possibilities of computational mathematical modeling in mathematics, science and engineering. It consists of a synthesis of Mathematical Analysis (Soul), Numerical Computation (Body) and Application. Volumes I-III present a modern version of Calculus and Linear Algebra, including constructive/numerical techniques and applications intended for undergraduate programs in engineering and science. Further volumes present topics such as Dynamical Systems, Fluid Dynamics, Solid Mechanics and Electro-Magnetics on an advanced undergraduate/graduate level. Volume I (Derivatives and Geometry in R3) presents basics of Calculus starting with the construction of the natural, rational, real and complex numbers, and proceeding to analytic geometry in two and three space dimensions, Lipschitz continuous functions and derivatives, together with a variety of applications. Volume II (Integrals and Geomtery in Rn) develops the Riemann integral as the solution to the problem of determining a function given its derivative, and proceeds to generalizations in the form of initial value problems for general systems of ordinary differential equations, including a variety of applications. Linear algebra including numerics is also presented. Volume III (Calculus in Several Dimensions) presents Calculus in several variables including partial derivatives, multi-dimensional integrals, partial differential equations and finite element methods, together with a variety of applications modeled as systems of partial differential equations. The authors are leading researchers in Computational Mathematics who have written various successful books.
