This book is the first to offer a systematic methodology for solving nonlinear ordinary differential equations (ODEs) using power series, specifically those arising in mathematical physics. It provides tools to eliminate the tedious manipulation of infinite series, enabling recursive computation of all terms. The authors also present a structured approach to overcoming convergence issues inherent to such methods, demonstrating that power series solutions can be both accessible and practical.
The authors’ teaching philosophy - that mathematics is best learned by doing - is...
