Michael Metcalf worked for many years at CERN. He is the author or
co-author of a range of publications, including forerunners to the
present volume, as well as Effective FORTRAN 77 (Oxford University
Press) and FORTRAN Optimization (Academic Press), and a number of
contributions to technical encyclopaedias.
John Reid is well-known as a numerical analyst and is a co-author
of Direct Methods for Sparse Matrices (Oxford University Press). He
is the Convenor of the ISO Fortran Committee and has played a
leading role in the development of many of the features of modern
Fortran, especially of coarrays.
Malcolm Cohen is a mathematician and the leading compiler writer at
NAG. He has participated actively in the development of the Fortran
standards, being a major designer of the objected-oriented
features. He is the Editor of the Fortran 2008 standard.
`Review from previous edition "This book is excellent. The prose is
clear and concise, explaining all the elements of Fortran 90 and
the extensions making up Fortan 95... If you need to write Fortran
90/95 code, keep this book by your computer."'
Computer Bulletin
`"It is a complete and authoritative description of Fortran 90/95
and is intended for new and existing users, and all for those
involved in scientific and numerical computing."'
Zentralblatt Math
`"Both authors are eminent scientists in the field of scientific
computing and their experience shines through every page and every
example."'
Mathematics Today
`'The book is excellent. It is written in such a way that simple
programs can already be coded after the first three chapters have
been read.''
EMS Newsletter
`Readers who are familiar with Fortran 90/95 Explained by Michael
Malcolm and John Reid will be pleased to add Fortran 95/2003
Explained, with the welcome addition of Malcolm Cohen as co-author,
to their libraries. As with the previous work, this is a model of
clear exposition ... Practitioners will be happy to have this
important new book.'
