"The text is written in a very smooth and intelligent form, yielding a readable book whose contents are accessible to a wide class of readers, even to undergraduate students, provided that they accept that some delicate points of some of the proofs could be omitted. Its readability and fast access to the core of the book makes it recommendable as a pleasant read." Mathematical Reviews "This is an excellent book on numerical solutions of polynomials systems for engineers, scientists and numerical analysts. As pioneers of the field of numerical algebraic geometry, the authors have provided a comprehensive summary of ideas, methods, problems of numerical algebraic geometry and applications to solving polynomial systems. Through the book readers will experience the authors' original ideas, contributions and their techniques in handling practical problems ... Many interesting examples from engineering and science have been used throughout the book. Also the exercises are well designed in line with the content, along with the algorithms, sample programs in Matlab and author's own software 'HOMLAB' for polynomial continuation. This is a remarkable book that I recommend to engineers, scientists, researchers, professionals and students, and particularly numerical analysts who will benefit from the rapid development of numerical algebraic geometry."
