About this book
Reviews
"I do not like manuals. ... I prefer introductions like this one: After some unavoidable preliminaries, numerous examples (arranged by topic, not by command name) show how Maple can be used to solve problems, and (very important!) also what one can do wrong. Normally, these samples can easily be modified, and will (after some trial and error, maybe) soon lead to a solution of one's problem. - Those who think like me will find this book very helpful."

"... Thus the book is designed for students, teachers, engineers and researchers aiming to master the Maple computer algebra system at an introductory level. The book achieves this aim. The coverage of material is quite extensive. ... I worked through selected parts of the book attempting to view the instructions from a beginner's perspective. The instructions are clear and the examples are relevant for most of the mathematics covered at undergraduate level by engineers and scientists. There are adequate warnings along the way as to where things might go wrong. This feature is a particularly useful aid to the beginner. I believe I would have found this book very helpful when I first started using Maple. ... The structure of the book allows the beginner to locate easily practical helpful information to deal with the problem at hand. ... ...I would recommend that some copies be placed in your computer laboratory to be on hand when students are working alone, as I am sure they will find it most helpful."

"[...] There are several ways to make yourself familiar with a computer algebra system. This book provides a useful and easy way to get acquainted with MAPLE V. This is an excellent book written about MAPLE V. We can recommend this book to mathematicians, physicists, chemists, engineers, and to all who aren't loath to use computer in computations."
