excellent

Extensive and rich in content. However, a few years ago, before this encyclopedia was in book form, it was a web site, and that web site was in the minds of many of us the -foremost- math-related web site on the Internet. It was a work widely referenced online and discussed on the messageboards; it had huge potential in the Internet medium. I certainly hope that the CRC lawsuit banning the web site (currently mathworld.wolfram.com) will be withdrawn. As is, I certainly will not purchase the book.
