Reviews
Introduction to Computational Science is useful for students and others who want to obtain some of the basic skills of the field. Its impressive collection of projects allows readers to quickly enjoy the power of modern computing as an essential tool in building scientific understanding. -- Wouter van Jollingen, Physics Today, "The heart of Introduction to Computational Science is a collection of modules. Each module is either a discussion of a general computational issue or an investigation of an application. . . . [This book] has been carefully written with students clearly in mind."-- Bill Satzer, MAA Reviews, The heart ofIntroduction to Computational Scienceis a collection of modules.
