Completely updated guide for students, scientists and engineers who want to use Microsoft Excel 2013 to its full potential. Electronic spreadsheet analysis has become part of the everyday work of researchers in all areas of engineering and science. Microsoft Excel, as the industry standard spreadsheet, has a range of scientific functions that can be utilized for the modeling, analysis and presentation of quantitative data. This text provides a straightforward guide to using these functions of Microsoft Excel, guiding the reader from basic principles through to more complicated areas such as formulae, charts, curve-fitting, equation solving, integration, macros, statistical functions, and presenting quantitative data.


Bernard V. Liengme earned his PhD and DIC from Imperial College, London. His experience as an academic administrator, particularly when developing a student information system, led him to Microsoft Excel. He was surprised to discover its usefulness in teaching technical courses and this led to the first edition of the Guide. He has been awarded the Microsoft MVP for Excel in each year since 2007. He lives in Nova Scotia, Canada, with his wife Pauline.
