Summary
This book gives a rigorous and practical treatment of integral equations. These are significant because they occur in many problems in mathematics, physics and engineering and they offer a powerful (sometimes the only) technique for solving these problems. The book aims to tackle the solution of integral equations using a blend of abstract ‘structural’ results and more direct, down-to-earth mathematics. The interplay between these two approaches is a central feature of the text and it allows …

What They're Saying
Critics Review
”…Porter and Stirling provide a precise and practical methodology for solving integral equations.” Directions “This book may be successfully used by graduate students and by any person working in the field of applied mathematics; it gives a very good treatment of all the subjects involved.” A. Corduneanu, Mathematical Reviews “…this is not a treatise but an excellent book from which to learn the subject, and therefore at least as valuable for the undergraduate library. Its level is just right for the beginning graduate student or the highly motivated senior.” Choice “…a very good book for students who want to become familiar with the basic theory of linear integral equations.” Harry Hochstadt, SIAM Review “…an excellent way to gain acquaintance with integral equations… Jet Wimp, The Mathematical Intelligencer
