About this product

Product Information

The bible of all fundamental algorithms and the work that taught many of today's software developers most of what they know about computer programming. - Byte , September 1995 I can't begin to tell you how many pleasurable hours of study and recreation they have afforded me I have pored over them in cars, restaurants, at work, at home... and even at a Little League game when my son wasn't in the line-up. -Charles Long If you think you're a really good programmer... read Knuth's] Art of Computer Programming... You should definitely send me a resume if you can read the whole thing. -Bill Gates It's always a pleasure when a problem is hard enough that you have to get the Knuths off the shelf. I find that merely opening one has a very useful terrorizing effect on computers. -Jonathan Laventhol This first volume in the series begins with basic programming concepts and techniques, then focuses more particularly on information structures-the representation of information inside a computer, the structural relationships between data elements and how to deal with them efficiently. Elementary applications are given to simulation, numerical methods, symbolic computing, software and system design. Dozens of simple and important algorithms and techniques have been added to those of the previous edition. The section on mathematical preliminaries has been extensively revised to match present trends in research. Ebook (PDF version) produced by Mathematical Sciences Publishers (MSP), http: //msp.org

"Insgesamt ein sehr lesenswertes Buch für den angehenden Facharzt, aber auch für den erfahrenen Gynäkologen sowie für den Pädiater, der sich für praktische Fragen der Geburtshilfe interessiert. Es gehört damit in jeden Kreissaal und in jede geburtshilfliche Abteilung, um sich kurz, schnell und Praxisrelevant zu informieren."F. Wolff in: Geburtshilfe und Frauenheilkunde 3/2010 "Somit bleibt dieses Buch auch in der 20. Auflage ein geburtshilfliches Lehrbuch: Es ist der Pschyrembel der Geburtshilfe."Mechthild M. Groß in: Hebammenforum 3/2010 "Alles in allem ein Buch, das unbedingt in das Regal der Geburtshelfer gehört."Kai J. Bühling in: Journal für Frauengesundheit 4/2009 "Die 20. Auflage der Praktischen Geburtshilfe? ist ein wichtiges Lehrbuch, das die Lücke zwischen den vorhandenen Büchern für die Kitteltasche und den großen Lehrbüchern im Sinne von Handbüchern erschließt. [...] Dieses Lehrbuch kann jedem in der Ausbildung stehenden Arzt empfohlen werden."S. Schmidt in: Frauenarzt 12/2008
