From the reviews:

“The book represents a collection of keynote papers presented during 18th International Conference on Computer Methods in Mechanics (CMM-2009), held Zielona Cora, Poland. The complete volume is dedicated to the late Professor O. C. Zienkiewicz, many times honorary chairman of the event in the recent past. … The reference is without doubt a fair tribute to this outstanding scientist who contributed a great deal to the development computer methods in mechanics.” (J. C. F. Telles, Zentralblatt MATH, Vol. 1193, 2010)
