Re: Book recommendation to learn Fortran (2003) for programmers?

Can you recommend any good books to learn Fortran (2003) for a
C/C++/JAVA/perl/python/ksh93 programmer who doesn't know Fortran yet?

I think there are good several books available; I personally like Modern Fortran explained, http://global.oup.com/academic/product/modern-fortran-explained-9780199601417 (or its predecessor Fortran 95/2003 explained). It gives a rather complete overview about Fortran and is quite readable - but effectively requires (as wished) that one already knows another programming language.

There are other books like http://cambridge.org/rouson - which give suggestions how to write code (in that case Fortran-tailored OOP design).

And, finally, the Fortran standard is also a good reference and quite readable for a standard. See http://gcc.gnu.org/wiki/GFortranStandards
