Numerical Methods made easy
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 19 years ago
I bought this book a little while ago to get more familiar with interpolation which I need to use in some of the signal analysis software that I write. As I was reading through the book I suddenly realized the overall usefulness of numerical methods in general. It has helped me code up routines for solving matrices and interpolation algorithms. After reading this book I really can not understand how courses in linear algebra and differential equations can be taught without extensive use of numerical methods. This book has really opened my eyes to a whole new way of solving engineering problems. Andy ([email protected])
Absolutely marvelous

The strongest point in favor of this book is the fact that authors seems to have taken an effort to see the problems from students viewpoint: i.e. from a viewpoint of a person who does not know Numerical Methods and want to learn them without facing unnecessary complications. Topics are comprehensive and clear. Excellent resource for students at undergraduate or graduate level. No wonder it won ASEE Meriam/Wiley award. Highly recommended. (NOTE: As with the case with many textbook readers, I did not read the book cover-to-cover. The review is based on a few sections that I read. )
Great book for self-study

I'm not an engineer. I majored in economics at MIT, and over the past few years have worked as an economic analyst. Recently, I needed to learn and review some numerical techniques in a short time frame. One of my co-workers suggested this book. In contrast to many other numerical methods texts, it is very clearly written and has lots of examples. I used the book to quickly learn about topics like cubic splines and solving partial differential equations. The author obviously cares about efficiently communicating concepts to students.
