Stephen Hawking zei ooit: ‘Complexiteit is de wetenschap van de 21ste eeuw.’ Die uitspraak illustreert het belang van dit begrip goed. Of het nu gaat over het internet of over marktregulatie, over het klimaat of over epidemieën, over verkeersinfarcten of over het weer: ze kunnen allemaal worden omschreven als een complex systeem, waarin een veelvoud aan componenten op elkaar inwerkt, binnen en tussen diverse niveaus. Complexe systemen vereisen een eigen benadering, met eigen concepten en...

In het publieke debat lopen de meningen over klimaatverandering sterk uiteen, ook over feitelijke aspecten die wetenschappelijk gezien heel helder zijn. Zo weten we al sinds de negentiende eeuw ...

Authors Ward Cheney and David Kincaid show students of science and engineering the potential computers have for solving numerical problems and give them ample opportunities to hone their skills in programming and problem solving. NUMERICAL MATHEMATICS AND COMPUTING, 7th Edition also helps students learn about errors that inevitably accompany scientific computations and arms them with methods for detecting, predicting, and controlling these errors.

For thirty years this has been the acknowledged standard in advanced classical mechanics courses. This classic text enables students to make connections between classical and modern physics - an indispensable part of a physicist's education. In this new edition, Beams Medal winner Charles Poole and John Safko have updated the text to include the latest topics, applications, and notation, to reflect today's physics curriculum. They introduce students to the increasingly important role that non...
