SIAM Review, Volume 63, Issue 1, Page 231-245, January 2021.
The section opens with a review well written by a giant in the field of numerical solution of partial differential equations, Roland Glowinski. In this featured review, he analyzes the book Think Before You Compute: A Prelude to Computational Fluid Dynamics, by E. J. Hinch, in much detail and contributes his own thoughts on appraisal or possibilities for improvement to every chapter of the book. The reviewer's verdict on the book is: “The book is a gem.” The following three reviewed books, written in an earlier and different world, take on a whole new relevance against the background of the current pandemic situation. First, we have the book by Irina Kareva and Georgy Karev, Modeling Evolution of Heterogeneous Populations: Theory and Applications. This book is diligently reviewed by Karen Page, who rates the book as “enlightening" even if it still contains small annoying errors. The following book, Delay-Adaptive Linear Control, by Yang Zhu and Miroslav Krstic, also seems to anticipate some aspects of the current modeling and control of the COVID-19 pandemic. This book is reviewed in detail by Bozenna Pasik-Duncan and is classified as an important contribution to control in delay systems. For the classification and mining of numerous medical data, such as those being generated right now, Mehrshad Sadria and Anita Layton suggest reading Bioinformatics, edited by Andreas D. Baxevanis, Gary D. Bader, and David S. Wishart, and recommend it as an “easy to read, greatly informative, and highly timely” book. Finally, I would like to mention the book by Zhendong Luo and Goong Chen on Proper Orthogonal Decomposition Methods for Partial Differential Equations, which is reviewed by the expert Stefan Volkwein, who praises the book as providing “a really good recipe for the application of the POD method to many nonstationary PDEs,” and also the book Basic Calculus of Planetary Orbits and Interplanetary Flight: The Missions of the Voyagers, Cassini, and Juno, by Alexander J. Hahn, that allows the reader to escape the current narrow earthly confinement in mathematical thoughts and delve into interplanetary explorations.

书评

SIAM 评论，第 63 卷，第 1 期，第 231-245 页，2021 年 1 月。
本节以偏微分方程数值求解领域的巨人 Roland Glowinski 撰写的一篇评论作为开篇。在这篇专题评论中，他详细分析了 EJ Hinch 所著的《计算之前先思考：计算流体动力学的前奏》一书，并对本书的每一章提出了自己对评估或改进可能性的看法。评论家对这本书的评价是：“这本书是一颗宝石。” 以下三本书是在更早的不同世界写成的，在当前大流行的背景下呈现出全新的相关性。首先，我们有 Irina Kareva 和 Georgy Karev 所著的《异质种群演化建模：理论与应用》一书。本书由凯伦·佩奇 (Karen Page) 认真审阅，评价为“具有启发性” 即使它仍然包含令人讨厌的小错误。Yang Zhu 和 Miroslav Krstic 合着的下一本书 Delay-Adaptive Linear Control 似乎也预测了当前 COVID-19 大流行的建模和控制的某些方面。本书由 Bozenna Pasik-Duncan 详细审阅，被归类为对延迟系统控制的重要贡献。对于大量医学数据的分类和挖掘，例如目前正在生成的数据，Mehrshad Sadria 和 Anita Layton 建议阅读由 Andreas D. Baxevanis、Gary D. Bader 和 David S. Wishart 编辑的 Bioinformatics，并将其推荐为“通俗易懂，内容丰富，非常及时”的书。最后，我想提一提罗振东和宫辰的《偏微分方程的适当正交分解方法》一书，
