Query: A vast ocean covering the world of mathematica, but only 1 inch deep.

I believe this book was written to used up as many pages as possible. The structure of the book is as follows. The author presents an idea in about two sentences (which has less insight than Mathematica's own help file), then demonstrates the idea with a series of one-line Mathematica statements over several pages. The statements are all very similar to each other, and the same ideas are repeated from one chapter to the next. Rather than presenting abstract ideas, the author iterates over many possible configurations of a command.In short, this book is an iteration over many combinations of Mathematica symbols. The book is broad in scope, but is thin on insight.Be sure to check out a preview of this book before purchasing it. If you are looking for a reference that will hand you a statement to accomplish a particular task, maybe this is the book for you. If you are looking for a deep understanding of Mathematica, look elsewhere.
