A vibrant field of study, partial differential equations arise in mathematical models whose dependent variables change continuously as functions of several independent variables (often space and time). Their power lies in their universality: there is a huge and ever-growing range of real-world problems to which they can be applied, from fluid mechanics and electromagnetism to p...(展开全部)

The Princeton Guide to Historical Research provides students, scholars, and professionals with the skills they need to practice the historian’s craft in the digital age, while never losing sight of the fundamental values and techniques that have defined historical scholarship for centuries. Zachary Schrag begins by explaining how to ask good questions and then guides readers st...(展开全部)
