Designed for a one-semester course, this text provides a bridge between the standard PDE course for undergraduate students in science and engineering and the PDE course for graduate students in mathematics who are pursuing a research career in analysis.

M. W. Wong is a professor in and former chair of the Department of Mathematics and Statistics at York University in Toronto, Canada. From 2005 to 2009, he was president of the International Society for Analysis, its Applications and Computations (ISAAC).
