Customer Reviews & Comments
This book gives very detailed info on the features in Mathcad 14. I found the book to be extremely useful. The CD gives you a full working Academic version of Mathcad 14. As a previous reviewer said, the Print Preview button doesn't work, but that isn't much of a problem, since this is a WYSIWYG program. Unlike the previous reviewer, I found that you can print the worksheet, so long as you want to print it directly, without using the print preview first.
It's an awesome book and CD for an awesome program.
