A First Course in Differential Equations for Scientists and Engineers
We used the Boyce and DiPrima book back when I was an electrical engineering student (Elementary Differential Equations and Boundary Value Problems <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.amazon.com&#x2F;Elementary-Differential-Equations-Boundary-Problems&#x2F;dp&#x2F;0471089559" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.amazon.com&#x2F;Elementary-Differential-Equations-Bou...</a>).<p>I remember it was an excellent book with many great examples and correlation with physics topics like mechanics, waves etc. Too bad our other mathematics books weren&#x27;t at this high standard :&#x2F;<p>Also, I really don&#x27;t think that such topics can be self-studied. It seems really difficult to me to understand such topics without a teacher!
