Boyce's Elementary Differential Equations and Boundary Value Problems is written from the viewpoint of the applied mathematician, with diverse interest in differential equations, ranging from quite theoretical to intensely practical-and usually a combination of both. The intended audience for the text is undergraduate STEM students taking an introductory course in differential equations. The main prerequisite for engaging with the program is a working knowledge of calculus, gained from a norm...

Grafieken kom je overal tegen: in de krant, op televisie, in wetenschappelijke publicaties en overheidsrapporten. Hoe goed zijn de grafieken die het brede publiek, journalisten, politici, wetenschappers en studenten met grote regelmaat tegenkomen? Een goede grafiek is een krachtig instrument om de boodschap in gegevens naar boven te halen. Maar er zijn ook veel slecht ontworpen grafieken die je makkelijk op het verkeerde been kunnen zetten.

Dit boek helpt je het kaf van het koren te scheiden. ...

De internationale topwetenschapper Thomas Hertog over het ontstaan van het heelal

Thomas Hertog werkte meer dan twintig jaar nauw samen met Stephen Hawking, een van de grootste natuurkundigen van onze tijd. Waar Hawking eerder de meest prangende vragen over het universum beantwoordde in zijn postuum uitgegeven boek De antwoorden op de grote vragen, vertelt Hertog in Het ontstaan van de tijd over hun gezamenlijke onderzoek. Hun centrale vraag: hoe is het mogelijk dat het heelal bij de oerknal ...
