Kenneth Arthur Stroud, B.Sc.,Dip. Ed.〔Laplace Transforms, Programmes and Problems, 1973, title page.〕 (Richmond, Surrey, December, 1908 - Hertfordshire township, February 3, 2000〔European Mathematical Society, Newsletter No. 36, June, 2000, page 42〕) was a mathematician and Principal Lecturer in Mathematics at Lanchester Polytechnic in Coventry, England.〔(Author information from book publisher's web site ).〕〔"A Tribute to Ken Stroud", Mathematics Today, Bulletin of the Institute of Mathematics and Its Applications, April, 2000〕 He is most widely known as the author of several mathematics textbooks, especially the very popular ''Engineering Mathematics''. Stroud was an innovator in programmed learning and the identification of precise learning outcomes,〔Stroud, K.A., "A System Approach to the Training of Mathematics to First Year Undergraduate Engineering Students at the Lanchester Polytechnic, Coventry", J. of the Institute of Mathematics. May 1971, 152-155.〕〔Stroud, K.A., "The Development, Organisation and Administration of Programmed Learning at Undergraduate Level", The Conference on Programmed Learning and Education Technology at Glasgow University, 5–8 April 1968, Association for Programmed Learning and Educational Technology, 1969, 295-298.〕 and Nigel Steele calls his textbook ''Engineering Mathematics'', based on the programmed learning approach, "one of the most successful mathematics textbooks ever published." He died in February 2000, aged 91.〔 ==Bibliography== *''Laplace Transforms: Programmes and Problems'', Stanley Thornes Ltd, 1973, ISBN 0-85950-002-0 and 1978, ISBN 978-0-85950-002-9. *''Fourier Series and Harmonic Analysis'', Nelson Thornes Ltd, 1983, ISBN 0-85950-137-X and Stanley Thornes Ltd, 1986, ISBN 978-0-85950-137-8. *''Engineering Mathematics'', Macmillan, 1970, ISBN 0-333-10908-2. 6th ed., (with Dexter J.
