Unacceptably naiive introduction - worthless
This book is less than worthless. It merely shows how to use matlab as a fancy calculator. It uses fancy terms in its chapters such as Weather Prediction, Flight Simulator, and what you get is a description of the random number generator !!
Totally unacceptable. You have been warned.

Not For Experienced Engineers and Scientists
While this "text" a good introduction to MATLAB, the title of this book is misleading. There is an introduction to the methodology for solving engineering problems, an indication that this book is intended for an audience not yet familiar with technical problem solving. Further, there is a companion set of instruction materials available from the author. Clearly, the content, format, and style are, in fact, an introduction to MATLAB for college students. Practicing technical people should look for another book. This text is, however, an adaquate introduction for the college student, or someone unfamiliar with solving engineering problems. Not all the capabilities and features of currently available versions of MATLAB are covered. If you are using MATLAB 5.0 or later, again, consider another reference.

A good start for MatLab
Very clear, well organized. Excellent for beginners using MatLab
