Plenty of examples and case studies utilize Mathematica 7's newest tools, such as dynamic manipulations and adaptive three-dimensional plotting.
Emphasizes the breadth of Mathematica and the impressive results of combining techniques from different areas.
Whenever possible, the book shows how Mathematica can be used to discover new things. Striking examples include the design of a road on which a square wheel bike can ride, the design of a drill that can drill square holes, and new and surprising formulas for p.
Visualization is emphasized throughout, with finely crafted graphics in each chapter.
