Synopsis

Mathematica Navigator contains a great deal of material not easily found elsewhere in a well-organized form, with sufficient detail and illustrative examples. This book will serve excellently as a Mathematica handbook; it starts with the basics, goes carefully through the main material of Mathematica, and covers some advanced topics.
