Reviews for Functions of Matrices: Theory and Computation (Other Titles in Applied Mathematics)
This superb book is timely and is written with great attention paid to detail, particularly in its referencing of the literature. The book has a wonderful blend of theory and code (MATLAB®) so will be useful both to nonexperts and to experts in the field.""- Alan Laub, Professor, University of California, Los Angeles
