Format:Paperback
I was fairly disappointed with this book. It seems to lack depth, and hardly touches on many of the topics that come up on your average undergraduate PDE course (although it might be of use to engineering students). You should get Strauss' classic 'PDE An Introduction' instead.

I've learnt more about PDEs from the Schaums outline for "Differential Equations" than this disorganised mess! Unfortunately, I'm still struggling to find a good graphical guide to solving PDEs, so can't recommend anything just yet

Almost Useless!
1 Nov 2002
Format:Paperback
As an engineering student, I found this book very theoretical, which makes it more difficult to read than an actual PDE textbook. Also, unlike other Schaum's series, this book does not have many worked-out examples and does not have solutions for all the problems. It is poorly organized.

Not up to par with other Schaum's outlines on mathematics
21 April 2006
Format:Paperback
This is one of the more poorly written Schaum's outlines I have encountered. The theory is very murky and the author gives no clear direction as to where he is going with this material and what it all means. PDE is a hard enough subject without working a bunch of meaningless problems that leave you wondering what it is you are supposed to have learned. Instead, I suggest you read "Introduction to Partial Differential Equations with Applications" by Zachmanoglou and Thoe in order to understand the mathematical underpinnings of PDE. Then read "Partial Differential Equations for Scientists and Engineers" to get a thorough feel for how PDE is used to solve real-world problems. Both books usually sell used for under $10 each, making them cost-effective alternatives to this Schaum's outline.

Know Your Fourier Series
13 Jun 2000
Format:Paperback
Before you even think about opening this book, be sure that you know your Forurier series. The book uses that to solve most of the problems. Also, it is really not for those new to PDE. May be a good text for graduate students, but will confise the non-specialist. Not a good introductory text.
