Textbook suggestion-Vector Analysis

Question

I took a course in vector analysis this year. It was a two fold course. The first part covered linear algebra and basic euclidean geometry. The second took to more advanced areas such as differential geometry, and the integration theorems. We used vector analysis by Schaum(author: Murray Speigel). I was wondering if there are more books on the subject? Please make sure you state the things covered in the textbooks you mention.

Answer 1

Schaum's Outline Vector Analysis by Murray Spiegel is useful for those who would devote themselves to advanced topics, where the vector analysis is just the beginning. Schaum's Outline Vector Analysis by Murray Spiegel is, I believe, not only covers the topic vector analysis, but also other interesting topics like Gauss' and Coulomb's Law, which can be explained by vector analysis. I suppose you are an engineering student, so you don't have to learn the intricacies of vector analysis. I would recommend the book Calculus with Analytic Geometry by Thurman S. Peterson (ISBN 97185-5804-9). It has a chapter that is devoted to vector analysis and its succeeding chapters covers other topics which is the logical consequence of learning vector analysis (example: divergence, curl, line and surface integrals).

It's a good book. Happy looking! Cheers!:-)

Answer 2

I highly recommend "Vector Calculus" by Michael Corral, which you can either download for free from here: https://www.mecmath.net/ or get a printed b/w copy from lulu here: https://www.lulu.com/de/de/shop/michael-corral/vector-calculus/paperback/product-7wd428.html?page=1&pageSize=4.
