Contrastive Linguistics

This book serves as an introduction to contrastive linguistics - the synchronic study of two or more languages, with the aim of discovering their differences and similarities, especially the former, and applying these discoveries to related areas of language study and practice. It discusses the principles and methods, and contrasts English, Chinese, German, and other languages at phonological, lexical, grammatical, textual, and pragmatic levels, focusing more on the useful insights contrastive analysis provides into real-world problems in fields such as applied linguistics, translation and translation studies, English or Chinese as a foreign language, and communication than on the discipline itself.

Ordinary differential equations

Ordinary Differential Equations is based on the author's lecture notes from courses on ODEs taught to advanced undergraduate and graduate students in mathematics, physics, and engineering. The book, which remains as useful today as when it was first published, includes an excellent selection of exercises varying in difficulty from routine examples to more challenging problems. These exercises show extensions of the techniques in question and serve to introduce the reader to the literature in this area.
