Can anyone suggest books that can help improving problem solving skills. Any book with engineering bent is a plus. Thanks
The forum discussion centers on recommendations for books that enhance problem-solving skills, particularly with an engineering focus. Key suggestions include "The Art and Craft of Problem Solving" by Paul Zeitz and "Principles of Mathematical Problem Solving" by William Erickson and David Flowers, both recognized for their effectiveness in mathematical problem-solving. Additionally, "Problems in General Physics" by I.E. Irodov is mentioned as a valuable resource for physics-related problem-solving. These titles are well-regarded in their respective fields and provide structured approaches to tackling complex problems.
PREREQUISITESThis discussion is beneficial for students, educators, and professionals in engineering, mathematics, and physics who seek to enhance their problem-solving abilities through recommended literature.

Principles of Mathematical Problem Solving by Erickson/Flowers
These are two good, popular books on mathematical problem solving. I don't know any for engineering.
