An exhaustive reference work that should be a valuable addition to every Mathematica owner's library. Each of the 1,061 built-in objects of version 2.0 are covered in alphabetical order, with a separate section devoted to graphics-related objects. In addition, 24 of the Calculus, Statistics, and Numerical Mathematics packages resident in version 2.0 are covered, yielding a total of over 1,500 listings. Virtually every listing includes an explanation of functionality, annotated examples, and numerous cross-references, in a format that will be useful to both beginning and advanced Mathematica users.
