Description:
Rainville’s Elementary Differential Equations is a mid-20th century classic in applied mathematics, widely used as a university text. This second edition (fourth printing, 1960) refines and expands the original 1952 text, introducing students to the fundamentals of differential equations with clarity and rigor. Covering first-order equations, higher-order linear equations, systems of differential equations, and applications across physics and engineering, the book remains an accessible yet thorough resource.A solid vintage academic text, this volume exemplifies the quality of mid-century mathematical publishing and would suit both collectors of vintage textbooks and anyone interested in the history of mathematics education.
