Simple fix :  replace the curved brackets with square brackets in the
cosine function !!

Then Mathematica agrees with the book

The Mathematica solution to the indefinite integral below doesn't agree with
that found in my CRC tables.

Integrate[xx Cos (aa xx), xx]
= (1/3) aa Cos xx^3

The CRC table gives: (1/aa^2) Cos (aa xx) + (xx/aa) Sin (aa xx)

The Mathematica solution doesn't look right.  Thanks for any help.
