Methods of Mathematical Physics

This classic work is now available in an inexpensive unabridged paperback edition. Since the first volume of this work came out in Germany in 1924, this book has remained standard in the field. Courant and Hilbert's treatment restores the historically deep connections between physical intuition and mathematical development, providing the reader with a unified approach to mathematical physics. The present volumes represent Richard Courant's second and final revision of 1953.
