Reviews

'This impressive volume covers an unusually broad range of topics in the field of numerical analysis, including numerical linear algebra, polynomial and trigonometric interpolation, best approximation, numerical quadrature, the approximate solution of nonlinear equations and convex optimization, and the numerical solution of ordinary and partial differential equations by finite difference, spectral and finite element methods. A particularly appealing feature of the text is the way in which it integrates a mathematically rigorous exposition with a wealth of illustrative examples, including numerical simulations, sample codes, and exercises. I warmly recommend the book to students and lecturers as an advanced undergraduate or introductory graduate level text.' Endre Suli, University of Oxford 'This long-awaited graduate text covers every topic of a traditional, one-year Numerical Analysis course in an accessible, rigorous, and comprehensive way. It's an indispensable assistant for anyone offering the class and a precious source of knowledge for a junior researcher in the field.' Maxim Olshanskii, University of Houston 'This is the book I have been waiting for: a textbook of numerical analysis fit for the Twenty-First Century. It sketches a path from the mathematical foundations of the subject to the wide range of its modern methods and algorithms, compromising on neither rigour nor clarity.' Arieh Iserles, University of Cambridge 'The book is the only textbook I know that covers the current topics for beginning graduate students in numerical analysis. The chosen topics in the book match exactly what one wishes to cover in a two-semester course sequence in computational mathematics, as the selection of the numerical methods is in align with the modern treatment of the subjects. Many instructors in the field have struggled to find two or more textbooks for the same coverage, but you can have all of them in this book.' Xiaofan Li, Illinois Institute of Technology
