Dalla quarta di copertina

This book is an introduction to the authors' MathTensor software, which provides a computer program that works with Mathematica by extending its capabilities to include tensor analysis. Included is an introduction to MathTensor's commands and functions along with information on how to apply MathTensor to specific problems, among them problems in electromagnetism and relativity. For students and researchers in science, engineering and mathematics who use tensors in solving problems.
