Numerical Methods for Engineers retains the instructional techniques that have made the text so successful. Chapra and Canale's unique approach opens each part of the text with sections called "Motivation," "Mathematical Background," and "Orientation". Each part closes with an "Epilogue" containing "Trade-Offs," "Important Relationships and Formulas," and "Advanced Methods and Additional References". Much more than a summary, the Epilogue deepens understanding of what has been learned and provides a peek into more advanced methods. Numerous new or revised problems are drawn from actual engineering practice. The expanded breadth of engineering disciplines covered is especially evident in these exercises, which now cover such areas as biotechnology and biomedical engineering. Excellent new examples and case studies span all areas of engineering giving students a broad exposure to various fields in engineering. McGraw-Hill Education's Connect, is also available as an optional, add on item. Connect is the only integrated learning system that empowers students by continuously adapting to deliver precisely what they need, when they need it, how they need it, so that class time is more effective. Connect allows the professor to assign homework, quizzes, and tests easily and automatically grades and records the scores of the student's work. Problems are randomized to prevent sharing of answers an may also have a "multi-step solution" which helps move the students' learning along if they experience difficulty.

While I thought that I was purchasing a newer edition of the text (could the AwesomeBooks team please clarify which editions they are selling? The picture of the textbook led me to believe that I was buying the 7th edition, but ended receiving the 3rd edition), the very low at the time of purchase helped offset the confusion.
As far as the text itself is concerned, it is easy to read, mostly helpful in breaking down problems, and the pseudocode has been pretty strait forward to adapt to the language that we use in class.

Be careful!!
This is a great book. Very well writen; a joy to read. However, the website is very misleading in that often you are being sold an earlier edition that you think. Read the small print under the pictures and the synopsis carefully!

Good book
This book does exactly what it is suppose to...describe the concepts being conveyed and how to use them. It does an excellent job in my opinion.
