Mathematical techniques, 4th edition, by D.W. Jordan & P. Smith

Hello!

I'm stumbling through a dark year
Hoping I don't Hindenburg my Goodyear
And your book is a very useful torch!
Metaphorically, of course.

Whether a box of wires and plates
Or a spring and some weights
You can find an equation
To tame any savage lion

Making sums is fun
When you're not flat on your bum
So the book is a joy as a cushion
Because I'm sure my rear won't fraction!

So a big thank you
For being one of the proud few
To make clear
Something so dear

Peace out!
