Review

From the reviews:

"Presents an introductory course to study partial differential equations especially from the computational point of view. ... At the end of each chapter the reader can find a very good selection of fine exercises or projects ... . The language of the book is simple and easy to read which will be highly appreciated by its readers. The book can be very useful for undergraduate and graduate students in mathematics and engineering." (Angela Handlovicová, Zentralblatt MATH, 1063, 2005)
