From the reviews:

"The subject of the book under review is a detailed treatment of various aspects of condensation … . The book written in engineering style will be of great benefit for those readers who have to treat numerically large structural systems resulting from discretisation of continuous systems. Various examples from structural engineering are presented to support the understanding. The book is competently written, and its reading is highly recommended to everybody interested in condensation." (Hans Troger, Zentralblatt MATH, Vol. 1074, 2005)

“There is great interest in the development of model-reduction techniques, which contain the highest degree of the full model. … this book is devoted to dynamic condensation methods. … This book contains many numerical examples to illustrate the techniques described. … The book is clearly written and contains a wealth of information on this subject. … useful as a reference tool for researchers, as an educational text for graduate students, and as a guide for engineers wishing to get acquainted with these techniques.” (Maurice Petyt, International Journal of Acoustics and Vibration, Vol. 14 (1), 2009)»
