Excellent bootstrap..

Though dated (the book covers Mathematica 3), I found this book very helpful in getting started with Mathematica 4.1. Half an hour with this book will make using Mathematica a joy and save many frustrations that beginner users who just 'jump' into the program often encounter.While I had no complaints with the text and contents. I think I'd have just felt better if the cover said "Covers Mathematica 4.1"!
