Differential Equations: Techniques, Theory, and Applications is designed for a modern first course in differential equations either one or two semesters in length. The organization of the book interweaves the three components in the subtitle, with each building on and supporting the others. Techniques include not just computational methods for producing solutions to differential equations, but also qualitative methods for extracting conceptual information about differential equations and the systems modeled by them. Theory is developed as a means of organizing, understanding, and codifying...

This is the student solution manual for Differential Equations: Techniques, Theory, and Applications by Barbara D. MacCluer, Paul S. Bourdon, and Thomas L. Kriete. This manual has been prepared by the authors of the text and it contains solutions to all of the approximately 725 odd-numbered exercises. The solutions are detailed and carefully written with student readers in mind. The breadth and quality of the exercises are strengths of the original text. In addition to routine exercises that allow students to practice the basic techniques, the text includes many mid-level exercises that help...
