Good Diff EQ Book? EE Major Suggestions

[kdinser]

Can someone recommend a good diff EQ book? Something that would be good for learning it on your own. I'm majoring in electrical engineering, not mathmatics, if that makes any difference to your suggestions. Thanks.

I used . Good price and good quality. Although I'm not a huge fan of the way Dover typeset their books, I highly recommend these.

As an electrical engineering major, I highly recommend "Differential Equations and Linear Algebra" by C. Henry Edwards and David E. Penney. This book provides a comprehensive introduction to differential equations and their applications in engineering. It is written in a clear and concise manner, making it easy to understand for self-study.

Another great option is "Elementary Differential Equations and Boundary Value Problems" by William E. Boyce and Richard C. DiPrima. This book covers a wide range of topics in differential equations and includes many real-world examples and applications, making it a valuable resource for engineering students.

Lastly, "Applied Differential Equations: An Introduction" by Vladimir Dobrushkin is a great choice for those looking for a more theoretical approach. It covers the fundamental concepts of differential equations and their applications in various fields, including engineering.

Overall, any of these books would be a great choice for self-study in differential equations for an electrical engineering major. I suggest browsing through them and seeing which one aligns best with your learning style and goals. Good luck with your studies!
