Absolutely Great Mathematica Textbook September 6, 2002
Pavel V. Kolinko (San Diego, CA United States)
9 out of 10 found this review helpful
While it is unlikely that there is a pure Mathematica course anywhere, the textbook for it already exists!
Mathematica Navigator by Heikki Ruskeepaa is an absolutely wonderful book that teaches you everything you ever wanted to know about Mathematica.
Out of about 10 books I've used, this book is THE BEST on Mathematica out there.

Outstanding book for Mathematica. Ruskeepaa does an outstanding job of coherently, and logically explaining how to use Mathematica in a straight forward way. If there was only one book to buy to learn Mathematica this should be the one.
Great introduction, great reference October 25, 1999
11 out of 13 found this review helpful
I started learning Mathematica with this book, and it got me up and running quickly. Concepts are presented in order (if a technique is used that hasn't been introduced yet, the reference to later in the book is always included). Explanations are clear. Multiple examples are included for more difficult concepts.What's more, it's a great reference... A good index and appropriate references are provided. I really couldn't fault this book in any way.

To solve practical problems in Mathematica the navigator is very usefull. If you want to go deeper,"modeling nature" by Gaylord and Nishidate is a usefull guide.
Good coverage of Mathematica applied over several fields December 11, 1998
8 out of 10 found this review helpful
I have several books covering Mathematica. Ruskeepaa's book is the one I turn to most often. Of specific interest to me is its coverage of Mathemtica applied to problems in optimizaion and statistics.
