This nice book of about 80 pages gives an introduction into methods to investigate and numerically solve time dependent partial differential equations, with emphasis on hyperbolic equations. The reader gets an idea of well-posedness for Cauchy and mixed problems and their difference approximation, and he can study the use of Fourier and Laplace transformation and the derivation of a priori estimates by the energy method. The book contains also a nice chapter on nonlinear problems. Referring to the earlier books by \textit{H.-O. Kreiss} and \textit{J. Lorenz} [Initial-boundary value problems and the Navier-Stokes equations. Boston, MA: Academic Press (1989; Zbl 0689.35001)], and by \textit{B. Gustafsson}, \textit{H.-O. Kreiss} and \textit{J. E. Oliger} [Time dependent problems and difference methods. New York, NY: Wiley (1995; Zbl 0843.65061)], the book presents a short account of comprehensive and polished material. The reduction of the latter had its problems, however. At several places, there are astonishing misprints (e.g. often in formulae of partial integration), or awkward formulations in Th. 1.4.4, say, it is announced that constants will not depend on the frequency whereas the proof shows that they do), and when considering numerical solutions of the systems obtained by the method of lines, there is no mentioning of possible stiffness problems, and, among other methods (useful for non-stiff cases), the Adams-Bashforth formulae of order 3,4,7 and 8 are recommended.
