A genuinely first-rate resource
The MathML Handbook by technical writer and expert Pavi Sandhu is a straightforward, "user friendly" guide to MathML, -- an XML-based markup language especially designed for mathematicians who publish on the World Wide Web. Individual chapters teach the basics of MathML, how to display MathML in web browsers, how to convert between TeX and MathML, how to utilize MathML for computations, and much, much more. With an accompanying CD featuring demo software for viewing and creating works with MathML, The MathML Handbook is highly recommended as being a genuinely first-rate resource.

Great for the Beginner and the Advanced
I bought this book as a MathML beginner and was greatly
impressed by its easy intoduction to the topic. My XML
was a bit rusty, but I wasn't a total newbie. This book
has covered all my needs for MathML processing and I have
seen no need to buy any other reference on the subject. As
I have been able to do all my project on the subject without
getting lost, I must really have found a good book
My co-worker, who is much more advanced than I also found
this book very useful as a reference guide and even learned
from the chapters on the various MathML supporting
applications and dynamic web.

Aside from the content, this book reads very well. The
author is clear, concise, and doesn't clutter the book with
personal nonsense like so many other technical authors. As
the users of MathML continue to increase, this book appears
just in time for the early adapters. As a big fan of MathML,
I hope others read this book and use MathML themselves. There
is no longer an excuse to refrain from MathML on account of
a lack of hardcopy documentation.
