Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:

Written for advanced level courses in Partial Differential Equations (sometimes called Fourier Series or Boundary Value Problems) in departments of Maths, Physics, and Engineering. Both Calculus and Differential Equations are prerequisites for this course. Pinsky's text, while still covering more traditional material in early chapters, de-emphasizes the use of special functions and rigorous proofs while emphasizing the use of Green's function, approximation methods, numerical methods, and asymptotic methods.
