Synopsis:

In 1940 G. H. Hardy published A Mathematician's Apology, a meditation on mathematics by a leading pure mathematician. Eighty-two years later, An Applied Mathematician's Apology is a meditation and also a personal memoir by a philosophically inclined numerical analyst, one who has found great joy in his work but is puzzled by its relationship to the rest of mathematics.

About the Author: Nick Trefethen is Professor of Numerical Analysis and head of the Numerical Analysis Group at Oxford University. An American, he taught previously at MIT and Cornell. He is a Fellow of the Royal Society and a former President of SIAM.
