nifty

so the math is for, like, juniors (US/ugrad) who have had a smattering of mechanics/E & M/etc. it's lots of tiny tricks (ahem i mean techniques) and neat-o examples. i thouroughly enjoy it. each section is some cool useful technique applied to a fairly original problem like eggs or bombs or underwater cables.
