' ... All in all, the book, which also contains many examples and pointers to software, is excellent as an introduction to the field and definitely suitable for introductory courses at senior undergraduate or beginning graduate level.' C. Bendtsen, Zentralblatt fur Mathematik 'I found the book recommendable and very readable. Moreoever, the layout is a feast for the eyes, showing the possibilities of a careful LaTex design.' Michael Hanke, Mathematical Reviews
