There are several textbooks appearing meant for specific syllabi of various Universities. However, books which cover the subject in a challenging and broad way appealing to the curious and inquisitive student are either highly priced, or rare. In this work, I have attempted to use problems with some solutions which are drawn from my Indian experience and relying on my training in California, USA, where rote learning is discouraged. For a developing country like India, where memorising has been inculcated from childhood, the graduating student has difficulty in facing real world problems of a practical and technical nature. This being so, the big companies are hesitant to hire from all but a few top colleges and Universities, and that too only from the top percentiles. As a result, the Indian Industry has relied heavily on imported and licensed technology to a large extent.

Efforts to build indigenous fighter aircraft, engines, software and O/S have lagged far behind China, Taiwan and Japan, who were inferior in technology in the 1950's Part of the reason is the outdated syllabi of the Unversities, and part is due to the spoon feeding of the students in various forms. It is sincerely hoped that this book makes some difference and is a help to those who read and use it.
