As a mathematical discipline travels far from its empirical source, or still more, if it is a second and third generation only indirectly inspired by ideas coming from ``reality,'' it is beset with very grave dangers. J. von Neumann.
This book is aimed at senior undergraduate and first year graduate students of mathematics, engineering, physics, and chemistry. It is very modern in point of view and notation. The book looks at the standard problems from a contemporary Sobolev point of view, a view more consonant with dynamical systems and numerical methods. Carefully selected physical problems are used to introduce notions and are revisited repeatedly throughout the text. A table of contents follow.
