title: Introduction to Mathematica for Physicists (Graduate Texts in Physics)
author:  Andrey Grozin 
description: <i>Mathematica</i> is the most widely used system for doing mathematical calculations by computer, including symbolic and numeric calculations and graphics. It is used in physics and other branches of science, in mathematics, education and many other areas. Many important results in physics would never be obtained without a wide use of computer algebra. This book describes ideas of computer algebra and the language of the <i>Mathematica</i> system. It also contains a number of examples, mainly from physics, also from mathematics and chemistry. After reading this book and solving problems in it, the reader will be able to use <i>Mathematica</i> efficiently for solving his/her own problems.

  Graduate Texts in Physics
  Graduate Texts in Physics publishes core learning/teaching material for graduate- and
  advanced-level undergraduate courses on topics of current and emerging ﬁelds within
  physics, both pure and applied. These textbooks serve students at the MS- or PhD-level and
  their instructors as comprehensive sources of principles, deﬁnitions, derivations, experiments
  and applications (as relevant) for their mastery and teaching, respectively. International
  in scope and relevance, the textbooks correspond to course syllabi sufﬁciently to serve as
  required reading. Their didactic style, comprehensiveness and coverage of fundamental
  material also make them suitable as introductions or references for scientists entering, or
  requiring timely knowledge of, a research ﬁeld.
