Vector analysis is a very useful and a powerful tool for physicists and engineers alike. It has applications in multiple fields. Although it is not a particularly difficult subject to learn, students often lack a proper understanding of the concepts on a deeper level. This restricts its usage to a mere mathematical tool.That's where this book hope to be different. We don't want this subject to be treated just as a mathematical tool. We hope to go beyond it. Therefore, the emphasis is to provide physical interpretation to the various concepts in the subject with the help of illustrative figures and intuitive reasoning. Having said that, we have given adequate importance to the mathematical aspect of the subject as well. 100+ solved examples given in the book will give the reader a definite edge when it comes to problem solving.For beginners this book will provide a concise introduction to the world of vectors in a unique way. The various concepts of the subject are arranged logically and explained in a simple reader-friendly language, so that they can learn with minimum effort in quick time. For experts, this book will a great refresher.The first 2 chapters focus on the basics of vectors. In chapters 3 to 5 we dig into vector calculus. Chapter 6 is all about vectors in different coordinate systems and finally chapter 7 focuses on the applications of vectors in various fields like engineering mechanics, electromagnetism, fluid mechanics etc.

'The whizz-kid making maths supercool. . . A brilliant book that takes everything we know (and fear) about maths out of the equation - starting with numbers' The Times 'A cheerful, chatty, and charming trip through the world of mathematics. . . Everyone should read this delightful book' Ian Stewart, author of Do Dice Play God? The only numbers in this book are the page numbers. The three main branches of abstract math - topology, analysis, and algebra - turn out to be surprisingly easy to grasp. Or at least, they are when our guide is a math prodigy. With forthright wit and warm charm, Milo Beckman upends the conventional approach to mathematics, inviting us to think creatively about shape and dimension, the infinite and the infinitesimal, symmetries, proofs, and all how all these concepts fit together. Why is there a million dollar prize for counting shapes? Is anything bigger than infinity? And how is the 'truth' of mathematics actually decided? A vivid and wholly original guide to the math that makes the world tick and the planets revolve, Math Without Numbers makes human and understandable the elevated and hypothetical, allowing us to clearly see abstract math for what it is: bizarre, beautiful, and head-scratchingly wonderful.

Because fluency practice is not a worksheet. Fluency in mathematics is more than adeptly using basic facts or implementing algorithms. Real fluency involves reasoning and creativity, and it varies by the situation at hand. Figuring Out Fluency in Mathematics Teaching and Learning offers educators the inspiration to develop a deeper understanding of procedural fluency, along with a plethora of pragmatic tools for shifting classrooms toward a fluency approach. In a friendly and accessible style, this hands-on guide empowers educators to support students in acquiring the repertoire of reasoning strategies necessary to becoming versatile and nimble mathematical thinkers. It includes: "Seven Significant Strategies" to teach to students as they work toward procedural fluency. Activities, fluency routines, and games that encourage learning the efficiency, flexibility, and accuracy essential to real fluency. Reflection questions, connections to mathematical standards, and techniques for assessing all components of fluency. Suggestions for engaging families in understanding and supporting fluency. Fluency is more than a toolbox of strategies to choose from; it’s also a matter of equity and access for all learners. Give your students the knowledge and power to become confident mathematical thinkers.
