Wolfram eTextbook Series
The Wolfram eTextbook series marks a shift in current academic courses, where today's computational technology is being used to minimize obsolete tasks and streamline learning. Over time, the series will take on a more revolutionary form as computation becomes relevant to a broader range of fields for the first time: the computational X paradigm.
To automate much or all of the manual labor associated with these topics, students will employ Wolfram Language—a powerful tool with uses that stretch beyond the classroom into real-world industry applications. In a world where tools to automate the tedious work of hand calculation are readily available, students can start building the crucial connection between the topics they are studying and the ways they can be used in trade, research and daily life.
In addition to print and Kindle formats, each eTextbook is available to download for free in the interactive Wolfram Notebook format. Free companion online courses are also often available, giving readers additional ways to learn and get Wolfram certification. The series goes beyond what static textbooks can do, teaching core concepts by immersing readers in extensive visualization, animation and manipulation made possible with Wolfram Language.
