Mathematical Principles for Scientific Computing and Visualization by Farin, Gerald, Hansford, Dianne (2008) Hardcover

Rate this book
"Many areas of scientific research, such as biology, geography, and psychology, involve gathering data and computing results. A number of software packages, such as Mathematica and Maple, have been developed to interpret and share those results with others in a meaningful way. However, without understanding the mathematics behind these programs, one might produce meaningless or erroneous results." In this non-traditional introduction to the mathematics of scientific computation, the authors use many hands-on examples to provide the reader with the tools and insight necessary for the effective and intelligent use of such software packages.
