Acta Numerica 1997: Volume 6

Review of the hardback: 'Acta Numerica is a fine achievement and I think we can expect to see it for many years to come. It sets itself laudable and important goals and has, to a large extent, achieve them. I believe that the volumes are of enormous benefit to our subject … The editorial board should be applauded for having the vision and drive necessary to create and sustain such a high quality publication … No mathematics library is complete without this annual publication, and I urge everyone working in numerical mathematics and scientific computing to read it.' Andrew Stuart, SIAM Review
Review of the hardback: 'Acta Numerica is a cross between a journal and a book. As a regular publication containing contributions from a variety of authors, it is similar to a journal in style. However, it is case-bound and the survey articles are written by invited authors, all of whom are expected to be leaders in the field of numerical mathematics and scientific computing.' The Mathematical Gazette
Review of the hardback: 'This and the other volumes of the series provide an excellent way to learn about current research in a wide variety of areas in numerical analysis and scientific computation.' Mathematics of Computation
