Synopsis
Thoroughly revised for its second edition, this advanced textbook provides an introduction to the basic methods of computational physics, and an overview of progress in several areas of scientific computing by relying on free software available from CERN. The book begins by dealing with basic computational tools and routines, covering approximating functions, differential equations, spectral analysis, and matrix operations. Important concepts are illustrated by relevant examples at each stage. The author also discusses more advanced topics, such as molecular dynamics, modeling continuous systems, Monte Carlo methods, genetic algorithm and programming, and numerical renormalization. It includes many more exercises. This can be used as a textbook for either undergraduate or first-year graduate courses on computational physics or scientific computation. It will also be a useful reference for anyone involved in computational research.

Review
Review of the hardback: 'This is an excellent textbook for course on computational physics and scientific computation.' Zentralblatt MATH
From the Author
A New Book for Course Adoption and Self Studies:
There is a homepage at the URL Fortran and C programs related to the book can be accessed at the site now.
The book is written for course adoption as well as for self studies: There are many examples and exercise problems that can help students and researchers/instructors alike in learning the basic computing methods related to physics and other fields. Special topics (Chapters 7 to 12) on computer simulation techniques are discussed with adequate references, which can lead the readers to current research.
I will also be very glad to hear from the readers of their view on the book. Please send me an e-mail if you have any comments or suggestions.
