Biografía del autor

Goldstein-Villanova University

"David I. Schneider" spent over 32 years teaching at the University of Maryland, has published an impressive 28 books over the past 18 years. He is the author of several best-selling texts, including his Visual Basic Series with Prentice Hall. Why are his books best-sellers? Students people love his extensive use of examples and applications--a concept that stems from his teaching experience and results in books that are "tried and true." His best-sellingVisual Basic texts have been successfully used for many years and have received consistent praise from both students and instructors.

David C. Lay holds a B.A. from Aurora University (Illinois), and an M.A. and Ph.D. from the University of California at Los Angeles. Lay has been an educator and research mathematician since 1966, mostly at the University of Maryland, College Park. He has also served as a visiting professor at the University of Amsterdam, the Free University in Amsterdam, and the University of Kaiserslautern, Germany. He has over 30 research articles published in functional analysis and linear algebra.

As a founding member of the NSF-sponsored Linear Algebra Curriculum Study Group, Lay has been a leader in the current movement to modernize the linear algebra curriculum. Lay is also co-author of several mathematics texts, including "Introduction to Functional Analysis," with Angus E. Taylor, "Calculus and Its Applications," with L.J. Goldstein and D.I. Schneider, and "Linear Algebra Gems-Assets for Undergraduate Mathematics," with D. Carlson, C.R. Johnson, and A.D. Porter.

A top-notch educator, Professor Lay has received four university awards for teaching excellence, including, in 1996, the title of Distinguished Scholar-Teacher of the University of Maryland. In 1994, he was given one of the Mathematical Association of America's Awards for Distinguished College or Unviersity Teaching of Mathematics. He has been elected by the university students to membership in Alpha Lambda Delta National Scholastic Honor Society and Golden Key National Honor Society. In 1989, Aurora University conferred on him the Outstanding Alumnus award. Lay is a member of the American Mathematical Society, the Canadian Mathematical Society, the International Linear Algebra Society, the Mathematical Association ofAmerica, Sigma Xi, and the Society for Industrial and Applied Mathematics. Since 1992, he has served several terms on the national board of the Association of Christians in the Mathematical Sciences.

"Nakhle H. Asmar" received his Ph.D in mathematics from the University of Washington in 1986. After spending two years on the faculty of California State University, Long Beach, he joined the University of Missouri, Columbia in 1988, where he is currently Professor of Mathematics. He is the author of the book "Partial Differential Equations and Boundary Value Problems," published by Prentice Hall in 1999. He is also the author or co-author of over forty research articles in the areas of harmonic analysis, Fourier series, and functional analysis. His research received support from the National Science Foundation (U.S.A.). He has received several teaching awards from the University of Missouri, including the William T. Kemper Fellowship Award, the Arts and Science Student Government Purple Chalk Award, and the Provost's Outstanding Junior Faculty Teaching Award. He is a member of the Research Board of the University of Missouri and a member of the College of Reviewers for the Canada Research Chairs program.
