Very informative and easy to find answers to your questions,
This review is from: Fortran 90 Programming (International Computer Science Series) (Paperback)
Ellis is really good in writing this book he writes in a style that is easy to understand many technical jargons are explained. Its also has good accessibility in that you don't have to read the book from cover to cover you can skip chapters or just read chapters you need. This is ideal for the beginner or the amateur who needs it just to look up some information. Great book!

excellent book for learning new features of fortran 90,
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Fortran 90 Programming (International Computer Science Series) (Paperback)
Well written detailed coverage of Fotran 90. Clear explanations of obsolete F77 features and other features of the language to avoid using and why. I would recommend this text to anyone wishing to learn F90 from scratch or upgrading from F77. Good example programs, code fragment and many programming exercises with solutions. I am now enjoying the use of derived types and generic functions as well as extending the intrinsic functions.

A very carefully written textbook and reference.,
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Fortran 90 Programming (International Computer Science Series) (Paperback)
This is one of the best books on Fortran 90 programming. Its major strength is that the information in the book is reliable and correct. It may especially be very useful for experienced FORTRAN 77 programmers. I think every Fortran programmer must have a copy of this text in his/her library.

Good explanations but too pedantic,
By biochemprof - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Fortran 90 Programming (International Computer Science Series) (Paperback)
This book explains very well the features of Fortran90 programming, but it is way too pedantic. I would have preferred a more concise, O'Reilly style of writing. Many examples of very simple code are provided to illustrate points - I found them to distract from the points being made. The book could also have benefited from a more Object Oriented focus as many of the new features of F90 over F77 are attempts to move Fortran in this direction.
