Engineering Fundamentals and Problem Solving

by Roland D. Jenison, Larry L. Northup, Lane H. Mashaw

The Eide text has been a "best seller" in the introductory/freshman engineering market since it came out in 1979. It has always been known for its reliable and principles-based focus. In this edition,careful updating of problems,exercises,and case studies along with a greater emphasis on computer problem solving and an earlier treatment of design will make this a favorite again. Specifically,a deeper and more extensive use of Excel and Matlab examples is presented.

Even in a course area that increasingly requires a variety of module books as well as broad unifying texts,this title is always considered for the first engineering course. For those instructors who do want Eide's fundamentals approach but desire a shorter text to complement other application specific texts,McGraw-Hill offers the BEST version of this text as well. Please see Eide's Introduction to Engineering Problem Solving and Design,2nd edition from the BEST series.
