4.0 out of 5 stars Thorough and technical, January 9, 1998

For advanced users with a mathematical bent or computer scientists, this is probably an excellent reference.It covers a very wide range of topics many of them purely mathematical (eg group theory,algebra), and defines terms precicely.

For the average user however, who wants things explained a bit more and defined a bit less, its probably not a great book.
