The rest of the book is must read for scientists/engineers which can't be said for Wagner's and many other books mentioned in this thread. | |

Completely agree that this is one of the good old books on Mathematica and has never been mentioned on this site. One aspect you didn't mention is how useful this book is for those that constantly need to transfer data from files to be analyzed in Mathematica. He covers a great deal in Chapter 11: Input and Output. I ordered mine a few months ago for just 6 dollars and is probably the best 6 bucks I've ever spent. | |
