An Introduction to Ordinary Differential Equations

Ordinary differential equations serve as mathematical models for many exciting “real-world” problems, not only in science and technology, but also in such diverse fields as economics, psychology, defense, and demography. Rapid growth in the theory of differential equations and in its applications to almost every branch of knowledge has resulted in a continued interest in its study by students in many disciplines. This has given ordinary difier- tial equations a distinct place in mathematics...
