Book recommendation on intro into fourier analysis

AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers on the challenges faced by a student beginning a math class focused on Fourier analysis, specifically using Boyce and DiPrima's "Elementary Differential Equations and Boundary Value Problems." While the student finds the examples in the book helpful, they struggle with the conceptual sections. Recommendations for introductory books on Fourier analysis are sought, with a suggestion made for Robert T. Seeley's "Intro to Fourier Series and Integrals" as a potential resource.

I'm starting my first math class that involves Fourier analysis. The book we are using is Boyce and Diprima's Elementary Differential Equations and Boundary Value Problems. I find the examples helpful but I have a hard time grasping the conceptual sections.

Any recommendations for good intro books on this subject? Thanks.

Thread 'Ashcroft and Mermin: revised edition'

Hi, I have notice that Ashcroft, Mermin and Wei worked at a revised edition of the original solid state physics book (here). The book, however, seems to be never available. I have also read that the reason is related to some disputes related to copyright. Do you have any further information about it? Did you have the opportunity to get your hands on this revised edition? I am really curious about it, also considering that I am planning to buy the book in the near future... Thanks!

Thread 'How is Jackson’s Electrodynamics taught during undergraduate?'

I’ve heard that in some countries (for example, Argentina), the curriculum is structured differently from the typical American program. In the U.S., students usually take a general physics course first, then move on to a textbook like Griffiths, and only encounter Jackson at the graduate level. In contrast, in those countries students go through a general physics course (such as Resnick-Halliday) and then proceed directly to Jackson. If the slower, more gradual approach is considered...
