Rating:  Summary: Pretty decent numerical book. Good if you use Matlab Review: I liked this book. It covers a large variety of subjects. It has some good examples, and gives you practice problems to work on. It has solutions to many odd problems in the back of the book. Good if you're self studying on your own. The author also provides good explainations of numerical techniques. Could used more examples for Matlab, but provides enough to get reader into the more detailed functions.There are some errors in the literature. If you're comfortable with numerical techniques, you should find them. Most of the book is safe to use. I got the book on a good discount, and find it being used more than the other numerical books in the library (for Matlab and non-Matlab languages). Books rarely get a 5, but this one surely deserves a 4.
Rating:  Summary: Interesting but useless Review: The book is not entirely without merit, but it's swarming with errors. Don't use the samples of code: some of them work mproperly or not at all. If you are a professional and are willing to spend hours hunting for errors, use it at your own risk. Otherwise, forget it.
Rating:  Summary: Riddled with Errors Review: This book is terrible if you are a college student trying to learn ther topics it covers There are so many errors you don't know if what you are reading is accurate. I use it for one of my classes, and I am afraid to use it to study with
