Practical Use of Mathcad: Solving Mathematical Problems With a Computer Algebra System

Summary: Practical use of Mathcad...
Review: A very good reference book. I find it easier to get information than the user guide. The first part covers the basic of the program while the second part (what I like) classifies into each type of mathematical problems with examples. If you know what type of the problem you encoutered, just look through the required chapter you'll find related theory and example. Covered version 7&8.

Review: I can't believe a book advertising MATHCAD 8 is still out there with windows 95/98.
The latest MATHCAD is "11". - that is 3 versions ago. And I have read Springer books, they are okay but they are translation from German.

I am suprised with the review -- this is an OLD book and it certainly shouldn't be selling for a NEW price. I had to be critical. I have 8 and just purchased 11.

Review: Perhaps something went wrong in the translation because the book is hard to use. Example: To find subscript in the index you have to know if you want an array subscript or a literal subscript. The user guide is better if you can find one so don't waste your money.
