5.0 out of 5 stars
Maximum Numerical Analysis / $ in print today!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Analysis of Numerical Methods (Dover Books on Mathematics) (Paperback)
This is the classic work that explains in detail why numerical methods perform well or poorly. It's the best book I've ever read on Numerical Analysis. Great problems too! From Numerical Linear Algebra to PDE's the basic theory is explained beautifully. If you've ever wondered why iterating the corrector in the predictor-corrector method for solving ODE's doesn't do any good this is the book for you. As an inexpensive Dover paperback this is a real bargain!

5.0 out of 5 stars
A Classic Text,
This review is from: Analysis of Numerical Methods (Dover Books on Mathematics) (Paperback)
For a modest price you can own a cornerstone in the discipline of Numerical Analysis. There has been many changes in computing and the study of numerical analysis, but this reference provides a wonderful foundation to this topic. The work on numerical methods for ordinary differential equations is a true asset to the book, but this big little book contains material on a variety of topics. All the contemporary undergraduate textbooks can trace some part of their structure to this source. This book has surprising breadth in the topics it covers, but still supplies a depth of analysis for many of the numerical methods. This book is a wonderful reference and everyone that has any work to do in Numerical Analysis should have this book on their shelf.

This review is from: Analysis of Numerical Methods (Dover Books on Mathematics) (Paperback)
I feel this is one of the most dense textbook I've encountered. I have no background with Numerical Analysis and I found this book next to impossible to understand. Please notice most 5 stars reviewers use this book as a REFERENCE!
