Mathematica veterans will probably remember the first version of Calculus&Mathematica which was published in a chunky set of spiralbound volumes by Addison-Wesley in the late ’80s (cf. the review in Maths & Stats). Ten years later Calculus&Mathematica is still going and in an expanded series of courseware packages; the whole series now goes under the name “Math Everywhere” (www.matheverywhere.com). It is no longer published in printed form by a mainstream publisher but is being distributed on CD-ROM by Wolfram Research Inc the creators of Mathematica who are promoting educational courseware as a “vertical application” of their own product (other computer mathematics software companies notably Matlab and Mathcad are actively doing this as well).
