TOPICS IN POLYNOMIALS: EXTREMAL PROBLEMS, INEQUALITIES, ZEROS

"The topics are tastefully selected and the results are easy to find. Although this book is not really planned as a textbook to teach from, it is excellent for self-study or seminars. This is a very useful reference book with many results which have not appeared in a book form yet. It is an important addition to the literature." Journal of Approximation Theory "I find the book to be well written and readable. The authors have made an attempt to present the material in an integrated and self-contained fashion and, in my opinion, they have been greatly successful. The book would be useful not only for the specialist mathematician, but also for those researchers in the applied and computational sciences who use polynomials as a tool." Mathematical Reviews "This is a remarkable book, offering a cornucopia of results, all connected by their involvement with polynomials. The scope of the volume can be conveyed by citing some statistics: there are 821 pages, 7 chapters, 20 sections, 108 subsections, 95 pages of references (distributed throughout the book), a name index of 16 pages, and a subject index of 19 pages ... The book is written in a gentle style: one can open it anywhere and begin to understand, without encountering unfamiliar notation and terminology. It is strongly recommended to individuals and to libraries." Mathematics of Computation "This book contains some of the most important results on the analysis of polynomials and their derivatives ... is intended, not only for the specialist mathematician, but also for those researchers in the applied sciences who use polynomials as a tool." Sever S Dragomir "This is a well-written book on a widely useful topic. It is strongly recommended not only to the mathematical specialist, but also to all those researchers in the applied and computational sciences who make frequent use of polynomials as a tool. Of course, libraries will also benefit greatly by including this book in their cherished collection." Mathematics Abstracts "There is no doubt that this is a very useful work compiling enormous researches carried out on the subject ... This is a well-written book on a widely useful topic."
