One book you may want to consider is the _Beginner's Guide to Mathematica Version 3_ by Jerry Glynn and Theodore Gray. A description of this book can be found at URL: http://store.wolfram.com/view/ISBN0521622026 and a complete table of contents can be found at URL: http://www.mathware.com/html/body_beginner_s_guide.htm The CD-ROM edition is comprised of notebooks that integrate seamlessly with the Mathematica help browser, so you can think of it as an extension to the Mathematica book. It contains a substantial information about the front end, including an exhaustive list of Front End commands, an explanation of Style Sheets, and a chapter called "How do I use that darn Option Inspector anyway?" This might be something you guys have been looking for? -- P.J.
