Mathematical theories are explained in a straightforward manner, supported by practical engineering examples and applications to ensure that readers can relate theory to practice. He has over 45 years' experience of successfully teaching, lecturing, instructing, training, educating and planning trainee engineers study programmes. Now in its eighth edition, Engineering Mathematics is an established textbook that has helped thousands of students to succeed in their exams. John Bird’s approach, based on numerous worked examples and interactive problems, is ideal for students from a wide range of academic backgrounds, and can be worked through at the student’s own pace. Tailored for the needs of engineers, this maths text does not assume a firm grasp of GCSE maths, starting at a level just below GCSE.John Bird is currently a Senior Training Provider at the Royal Naval School of Marine Engineering in the Defence College of Marine and Air Engineering at H. K. The school, which serves the Royal Navy, is one of Europe's largest engineering training establishments. Studying engineering, whether it is mechanical, electrical or civil, relies heavily on an understanding of mathematics. K. More recently, he has combined freelance lecturing at Portsmouth University, with technical writing and Chief Examiner responsibilities for City and Guilds Telecommunication Principles and Mathematics, and examining for the International Baccalaureate Organisation.

John Bird, the author of over 100 textbooks on engineering and mathematical subjects, is the former Head of Applied Electronics in the Faculty of Technology at Highbury College, Portsmouth, U.He is the author of some 130 textbooks on engineering and mathematical subjects with worldwide sales of over one million copies. John Bird's approach, based on numerous worked examples supported by problems, is ideal for students from a wide range of academic backgrounds, and can be worked though at the student's own pace. Some 1,000 engineering situations/problems have been 'flagged-up' to help demonstrate that engineering cannot be fully understood without a good knowledge of mathematics. This has been proved by the thousands of students guided to exam success by previous editions of this book and the highly popular companion title Engineering Mathematics.

This textbook clearly demonstrates the relevance of mathematical principles and shows how to apply them in real-life engineering problems. Basic mathematical theories are explained in the simplest of terms, supported by practical engineering examples and applications from a wide variety of engineering disciplines, to ensure the reader can relate the theory to actual engineering practice.
