Product Review Summary: Very nice This is a very nicely written text, comprehensive in what it aims to cover. The illustrations are plentiful and very helpful. The material is mostly self-contained and presented in a novel way (Fermat, Euler, Hilbert each have their own groups of sections!).
This is the best treatment I've seen for lattice basis reduction (a topic treated in many other texts) as well as for polynomial factoring over fields (Cantor Zassenhaus) and other topics. I've read parts of this book that were irrelevant for my research simply because the book is a joy to read. Highly recommended to anyone with an interest and some degree of mathematical maturity.
The only drawback is that my edition has a number of typos, some serious (however the authors do provide an online corrigenda).
Product Review Summary: State-of-the-art in CAS I am a C programmer and this book was fundamental to introduce myself in the field of computer algebra systems (CAS). It's very well structured and at the state-of-the-art in that discipline. The only remarks is about the strong presence of author's mother-tongue influences in some English phrases.
Product Review Summary: Good overview A good and complete review, a very good bibliography. Wonderfull graphics. A subtle sense of humor.
Product Review Summary: Mod. Computer Algebra A lucidly written book. Has well balanced background and problems. However, it needs to have more tricky problems that really makes one think deeper though there are some. The book proves a very good assest to the Library.
Product Review Summary: MCA - very adequate book on computer algebra topics Covering a lot of topics on "Computer Algebra" this book is a fine workout. Many mathematical proofs are provided and most subjects are explained and outlined very accurately. Only sometimes things can not as easily be seen as the author clames. The homepage of Mr. von zur Gathen provides a postscript file with corrections and additions and even more one containing solutions to many of the given exercises.
