Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
Designed to be both a guide to the capabilities of Mathematica as well as a detailed tour of modern mathematics--written by one of its leading expositors, Stan Wagon--this book is a completely revised edition, containing twice as much material, while using the very latest Mathematica 3.0 version throughout. The book guides readers through fascinating areas of modern mathematics, from high precision number theory and innovative treatments of differential equations, to chaos, fractals and space-filling curves.
