John Bird's approach, based on numerous worked examples and students. Student's own pace. Basic mathematical theories are explained in a straightforward manner. The HNC / D units.

Now in its sixth edition, Higher Engineering. Mathematics is an achievement exam. It has been updated to maximize the book for the first year of engineering. This book also caters for the engineering of engineering units from Edexcel. As such it includes the core unit, Analytical Methods for Engineers, and other specialist units, Further Analytical Methods for Engineers and Engineering Mathematics, both of which are common to the electrical / electronic engineering and mechanical engineering pathways. For ease of reference a mapping grid is included.

The book is supported by a suite of free web downloads:
. Introductory-level algebra: To enable students to revise the basic algebra needed for engineering courses - available at http://books.elsevier.com/companions/XXXXXXXXX
. Instructor's Manual: Providing algebra assignment - available at http://www.textbooks.elsevier.com (for lecturers only)
. Extensive Solutions Manual: 640 pages with developed solutions for the further problems and exercises in the book - available on http://www.textbooks.elsevier.com (for lecturers only)

. Unique in introducing higher mathematical concepts.
. Fully mapped to BTEC Higher National Engineering and Foundation Degree unit specifications
. Free instructor's manual is available online
