This book is for mathematics lovers, but if you are not one, we hope you soon will be. Although it mainly targets enthusiasts in high-school and liberal arts colleges, the book is structured to make learning interesting for students with different interests and backgrounds. Practice questions are of various levels of complexity and include many explorations of real-life situations: They develop understanding, build confidence and examine multiple concepts. Challenges have been included for the adventurous, while Investigations are suggested for self-study. The Escapades chapter contains stimulating puzzles to encourage experimentation, a list of unsolved mathematical problems, and a collection of wonderful theorems. The book includes simple tips to help the reader relax and re-energise. About the Authors: Adeline Ng and Dr. Rajesh Parwani are educators based in Singapore.

The subject of integrated navigation systems covered in this book is designed for those directly involved with the design, integration, and test and evaluation of navigation systems. It is assumed that the reader has a background in mathematics, including calculus. Integrated navigation systems are the combination of an onboard navigation solution (position, velocity, and attitude) and independent navigation data (aids to navigation) to update or correct navigation solutions. In this book, this combination is accomplished with Kalman filter algorithms.
