Mathematica Beyond Mathematics: The Wolfram Language in the Real World

Although many books have been written about Mathematica, very few of them cover the new functionality added to the most recent versions of the program. This text introduces the new features using real-world examples, based on the experience of the author as a consultant. In the process, you will also learn more about the Wolfram Language and how you can use it to solve a wide variety of problems. Both are the most important objectives of the book. To accomplish that, the author raises questions from a wide range of topics and answers them by taking full advantage of Mathematica's latest features.
