Sneddon’s genius was in his framing. He didn’t try to cover everything. Instead, he built a toolkit. The book is divided into three acts:

Sneddon's book also covers boundary value problems, which are essential in physics and engineering. These problems involve solving a PDE subject to specific conditions on the boundary of the domain. For example, the Dirichlet problem for Laplace's equation, an elliptic PDE, involves finding a function that satisfies the equation and takes on specified values on the boundary.

This is the heart of the book. Sneddon reduces the general second-order PDE to canonical (standard) forms. He covers hyperbolic, parabolic, and elliptic equations in separate sections, demonstrating how to simplify them into wave, heat, or Laplace-like equations.
