KW  - DIFFERENTIAL EQUATIONS
N1  - Includes index; 1. Definitions, families of curves -- 2. Equations of order one -- 3. Numerical methods -- 4. Elementary applications -- 5. Additional topics on equations of order one -- 6. Linear differential equations -- 7. Linear equations with constant coefficient -- 8. Nonhomogeneous equations -- 9. Variation of parameters -- 10. Applications
N2  - The new geometric material appears mainly in Section 1.4 and 11.8. In the former we introduce students to the idea of a family of curves as solutions to a differential equation, and in the latter, the concept of the phase plane of a system of equations is presented
