Good Starting point for beginners.

As the title says, this is a book for beginners in the finite element method. Gives a fairly good introduction to the subject taking care to explain all the details. Draws examples from various fields of mechanical/civil engg. Exercises are helpful. Upon completion, the reader should be able to code in order to solve many engg. problems of interest. The book describes the popular Variational & Galerkin principles mainly. Would highly recommend it to anyone new to the subject of finite element.
