Description: The primary purpose of this book is to show readers how to solve physical problems and deal with their underlying theoretical concepts, while using Mathematica to derive numeric analytic solutions. This book features broadly expanded coverage of the original German-language version of the work published by Springer, with over 100 pages of new material. It includes many additional examples and new content sections within the six chapters comprising this volume. Mathematica in Theoretical Physics also includes introductions to the Mathematica software system and to programming in Mathematica, designed specifically for physicists and engineers and intended to give users better access to the content. - Back cover.
Notes: Includes bibliographical references (p. [333]-335) and index.
