Critics Review

“Distinguishing features are the inclusion of many recent applications of numerical methods and the extensive discussion of methods based on Chebyshev interpolation. This book would be suitable for use in courses aimed at advanced undergraduate students in mathematics, the sciences, and engineering.”–Choice “An instructor could assemble several different one-semester courses using this book–numerical linear algebra and interpolation, or numerical solutions of differential equations–or perhaps a two-semester sequence. This is a charming book, well worth consideration for the next numerical analysis course.”–William J. Satzer, MAA Focus
