And in recommending Heikki's book, I simply meant to convey that he seems to be a skilled mathematiker who's now in the third edition of his book, and that he offers at least some description in the front matter of the book as to _how_ he wrote the book, starting with Mathematica notebooks and ending up with a very professional looking typeset book. For more about the book, you might want to dig out a review of the 3rd edition published the Mathematica® Journal: Review of Mathematica Navigator, 3rd Edition, by Heikki Ruskeepää [Elsevier Academic Press, 2009 ISBN 978-0-12-374164-6] Written by Robert M. Lurie Abstract: Mathematica Navigator: Mathematics, Statistics, and Graphics, 3rd edition, is an important resource for all users of Mathematica, Version 6 or 7. This reviewer has found the book to be invaluable in using and understanding Mathematica and taking advantage of the many advances in the most recent versions of the program.
