Format:Paperback
It's a Schaum Outline. It does what it says on the box! Clearly written, assuming little other than some intelligence on the part of the reader and entirely devoid of cow fertilizer. I like it.

Schaum's Mathematica is a great introduction.
23 July 2002
Format:Paperback
This is an excellent introduction to Mathematica. I have suggested that they include this with each copy of the software and offer it (free?) to prospective buyers. A great review of the basic aspects of a very extensive software application.

Great book for learning how to use Mathematica
9 Nov 2003
Format:Paperback
This is an excellent book for people who are new to Mathematica. It gets right to the point by providing hundreds of examples showing how to use Mathematica to solve problems ranging from basic arithmetic through calculus, ordinary differential equations and linear algebra. It also clearly shows how to use Mathematica to draw 2D and 3D graphs. This book is an excellent supplement to the Mathematica Book, which is included on the Mathematica CD.

Perfect introduction to Mathematica.
1 April 2006
Format:Paperback
This is an excellent introductory book on Mathematica. If you need to learn some basic features of this language, it is the best tool.
The author did not spend too much time on theory. The rules and syntax are explained very clearly with illustrative examples. Of course, the theory may first sound very dry and dull, but once you follow the examples, you will see that things will settle in your mind easily. Clear, concise and effective discussion of the topics makes your job easy and enjoyable.
The best way to learn and explore various features is to try to modify the parameters in the examples. Make use of your own creativity to discover new features. In many examples, the same outcome can be obtained by several different ways.
This book, in general, covers the fundamentals of the language, but it is sufficient to use differentiation, integration, 2D and 3D graphics, differential equations, linear algebra, etc. Mathematica, certainly, is quite a sophisticated language, there are many more intricate features.
For more advanced features, please try "Mastering Mathematica" by John W. Gray.
