Knowledge of one or more high level symbolic mathematics programs is rapidly becoming a necessity for mathematics users from all fields of science. The aim of this book is to provide a solid grounding in Maple, one of the best known of these programs. The authors have sought to combine efficiency and economy of exposition with a full coverage of Maple. The book has twelve chapters, of which eight are completely accessible to anyone who has completed the usual calculus and linear sequences as taught in American universities. There are three chapters on Maple programming. These can be read without prior programming experience, but a knowledge of a high-level programming language (Basic, Fortran, C, etc.) will be helpful. There is also a chapter on some relevant aspects of abstract algebra. Although complete in its coverage of Maple, there is no "fat" in the book. Above all, the book is designed to enable the reader to extract value from Maple without wasting time and effort in the learning process. It provides a fast track to Maple expertise.
