Mathematical Methods in the Physical Sciences

AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers around the challenges faced by a self-student of Mary L. Boas' book, who has successfully solved most problems but struggles with some difficult questions. The individual seeks online resources or university links for solutions. Responses suggest that solutions may exist online, encouraging further searches. However, there is skepticism regarding the request, with concerns that it may be an attempt to obtain answers for homework without proper effort. Overall, the conversation highlights the difficulty of certain problems in the book and the potential availability of solutions online, while also addressing the ethical implications of seeking free answers.

I have been self studying this book by Mary L.Boas for a while which is a treat to study for its great depth. However, the problem of mine is though I have been able to solve most of the problems of this book, there are some really tough Questions in this book which are very hard to solve. So, are there any websites of Universities or links to the solutions of this great book. I will be very happy if you guys could post them. Thanks...

Use Google. The solutions are probably out there if you look hard enough.
 
I searched with google everywhere for the solutions , but couldnot find any.
 
Look harder. I googled "Boas solutions" and some very unambiguous results came up. That and the fact that you are basically asking for freebies to what is probably homework (we have no way to tell on the internet what your intentions are) makes this thread highly suspicious, at least to me.
 
For the following four books, has anyone used them in a course or for self study? Compiler Construction Principles and Practice 1st Edition by Kenneth C Louden Programming Languages Principles and Practices 3rd Edition by Kenneth C Louden, and Kenneth A Lambert Programming Languages 2nd Edition by Allen B Tucker, Robert E Noonan Concepts of Programming Languages 9th Edition by Robert W Sebesta If yes to either, can you share your opinions about your personal experience using them. I...
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!
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...
