Textbook

Updated Texts are Available

I can happily announce that both Volume 1 and Volume 2 are now available to purchase.

Both books have been updated for the new Engineering Studies syllabus and still follow the module structure of the course.

If you find any errors and you want to let me know, you can comment here, or email me at my DET email address, which is my names joined by a full stop followed by the usual DET address.

To answer the unasked question about electronic editions. I am investigating electronic versions once the print editions are finalised. Distribution is the challenge with things like site licences which of course some schools want. There will be no PDF version of the complete book, they are too easy to copy and my publisher won’t support that.

My publisher is also a seller of the books and he can be contacted at the phone, fax and email address below.

The publisher can be contacted by phone on (02) 4294 8452, by fax on (02) 4294 3963 or via email at:

    I’d say it will be out around the end of Term 1, hopefully a little before. If it isn’t done by about week 5 of term 1 I will post the second chapter’s draft here.

    Paul,
    Will you make an electronic copy of the text available through site licence?

    Hi Paul

    Thank you very much for the notes.

    Is it ok to give out the soft copy of the draft notes to my engineering students?

    @Scott Sleap
    Scott, it is something I need to discuss with my publisher as he actually owns the copyright. As a small publisher I am not sure he is keen to invest in soft copy technology that still have protected content. So sorry to not have definitive answer for you yet. For the record you are not the only person to ask. Cheers, Paul.
