The fifth edition of "Numerical Methods for Engineers with Software and Programming Applications" continues its tradition of excellence. The revision retains the successful pedagogy of the prior editions. Chapra and Canale's unique approach opens each part of the text with sections called "Motivation", "Mathematical Background", and "Orientation"preparing the student for what is to come in a motivating and engaging manner. Each part closes with an Epilogue containing sections called "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. Users will find use of software packages, specifically MATLAB and Excel with VBA. This includes material on developing MATLAB m-files and VBA macros. Also, many, many more challenging problems are included. The expanded breadth of engineering disciplines covered is especially evident in the problems, which now cover such areas as biotechnology and biomedical engineering.

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.
