Editorial Reviews

Review

This book is a much-needed complement to existing support material for Mathematica in particular, and Wolfram technologies in general. It puts to rest, once and for all, the frequently heard claim that Mathematica is difficult and not accessible to the school and college levels of our computational universe. –FRED SZABO: Concordia University in Montreal, author of Actuaries’ Survival Guide

Mathematica has had a transformative effect on my teaching and on student learning in all of my classes, from my lowest-level high-school honors chemistry classes to my most advanced classes in computational chemistry, computational medicinal chemistry and scientific programming. –ROBERT GOTWALS: North Carolina School of Science and Mathematics
