There are over 100 books published about Mathematica.
One of my personal favourites is "Mathematica: A Practical
Approach" by Nancy Blachman. But there are several that
are worth looking at.
For a detailed description take a look at
<http://www.wolfram.com/mathematica/books/index2.html>
Here is a list of all the tutorial/reference books from that
listing that are available in English.
Wolfram Research: Selected Tutorial Notes
Martha L. Abell and James P. Braselton: Mathematica by Example, Revised
Edition
Nancy Blachman: Mathematica: A Practical Approach
Nancy Blachman: Mathematica: Quick Reference, Version 2
Werner Burkhardt: First Steps in Mathematica
Wade Ellis, Jr. and Ed Lodi: A Tutorial Introduction to Mathematica
Theodore W. Gray and Jerry Glynn: The Beginner's Guide to Mathematica
Version 2
Stephen Kaufmann: Mathematica as a Tool
William T. Shaw and Jason Tigg: Applied Mathematica: Getting Started,
Getting It Done
