Review

"...a classic piece of work with which every applied mathematician and engineer should become familiar."
Applied Mechanics Reviews

"Numerical Solution of Partial Differential Equations is one of the best introductory books on the finite difference method available."
MAA Reviews

"First and foremost, the text is very well written. The authors take great care in keeping the presentation at an elementary level...The reader obtains at least a good intuitive understanding of many important concepts of the field."
Jens Lorenz, University of New Mexico, SIAM Review
