If you know what type of the problem you encoutered, just look through the required chapter you'll find related theory and example...

2.0 out of 5 stars OLD - OLD
I can't believe a book advertising MATHCAD 8 is still out there with windows 95/98.

The latest MATHCAD is "11". - that is 3 versions ago. And I have read Springer books, they are okay but they are translation from German.

2.0 out of 5 stars Not user friendly, April 5, 2002

Perhaps something went wrong in the translation because the book is hard to use. Example: To find subscript in the index you have to know if you want an array subscript or a literal subscript. The user guide is better if you can find one so don't waste your money.
