I don't know what you want to do with Mathematica, So I will assume you have general interest in first use. The Beginner's Guide to Mathematica 4, Jerry Glynn & Theodore Gray Good beginner information about general use and why they did some of the things they did. Mathematica Navigator: Mathematics, Statistics and Graphics, Third Edition by Heikki Ruskeepaa Excellent book on howto for just about everything. Essential reference book. Mathematica=AE: A Problem-Centered Approach (Springer Undergraduate Mathematics Series) by Roozbeh Hazrat Great book with problem and exercise approach. I think it definitely reinforces the easiest way to program with Mathematica. Think more mathematically and less algorithmically. An Introduction to Programming with Mathematica=AE by Paul R. Wellin, Richard J. Gaylord and Samuel N. Kamin Excellent book. Covers Mathematica as a programming language with some great exercises. I think these are excellent books. I have more and have learned something from every one of them. The bottom three books are the ones I would be least willing to part with. If damaged, I would buy them again.
