Product Description This practical guide to Mathematica focuses on the specific needs of scientists and engineers. Problems in these fields often are non-trivial, and can push Mathematica (and any computer system) to its limits. Here the author, providing carefully chosen examples, shows how these problems can be solved.
Customer Reviews: An excellent book for really enjoying Mathematica!September 11, 1999 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
While Wolfram's The Mathematica Book is a necessary reference for using Mathematica, Bahder's one is an excellent and advanced guidance to use Mathematica in solving real problems. For my own experience, the Wolfram's manual is pointless and so little helpful for beginners; only after recognizing the style of Mathematica and learning it through complete and non-trivial problems I started to really enjoy Mathematica. This book is somewhat out-of-date ONLY in accompanied Mathematica version (2.2), but its great goodness is totally not disturbed. I strongly recommend this book!
Very useful book for understanding Philosophy of MathematicaMarch 30, 2003 Oleg Obolensky(Rockville, MD USA) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This books really teaches you how to work effectively with Mathematica. It helps to understand the basic ideas of Mathematica's "inner mechanics" with very carefully selected examples. I would recommend reading this book after you have read some introductory course. This book will give you a much deeper insight into Mathematica. Inspite the fact that the text relies on Mathematica 2.2 this is in no way outdated even now, when Mathematica 4.2 available.
Great for real technical users. Answers the hard questions.October 3, 1998 This book zeros in on the exact problems us technical people have solving problems with MMA. It is not introductory. After you have struggled with Wolfram's book, you can find the answer here. Example: how to get functions of functions to evaluate the way you want them too, without error messages.
