Reviews
From the reviews of the first edition:
"This book concerns the practical solution of partial differential equations and reflects an inter-disciplinary approach to problems occurring in natural environments. … it is a new innovation for the student community in environmental science and engineering. It is an excellent piece of research." (Prabhat Kumar Mahanti, Zentralblatt MATH, Vol. 1076, 2006)
