Paperback : HK$372.00
For the engineering and scientific professional, "A Physicist's Guide to Mathematica, 2/e" provides an updated reference guide based on the 2007 new 6.0 release, providing an organized and integrated desk reference with step by step instructions for the most often used features of the software as it applies to research in physics. For Professors teaching physics and other science courses using the Mathematica software, "A Physicist's Guide to Mathematica, 2/e" is the only fully compatible (new software release) Mathematica text that engages students by providing complete topic coverage, new applications, exercises and examples that enable the user to solve a wide range of physics problems. This title does not require prior knowledge of Mathematica or computer programming. It can be used as either a primary or supplemental text for upper-division physics majors and an Instructor's Solutions Manual is available. It provides over 450 end-of-section exercises and end-of-chapter problems. It serves as a reference suitable for chemists, physical scientists, and engineers. It is compatible with Mathematica Version 6, a recent major release. It features a compact disk that contains all of the Mathematica input and output in this book.
