Dear David,
Dear Jim,
Many sincere thanks for your interest in the typing error in
the name of Richard H. Rand.
I am also thankful to David for this fixing it in CVS. It was a
significant typing error. Now it's perfect. Thank you!
A book by Richard H. Rand, Computer Algebra in Applied Mathematics:
An Introduction to MACSYMA, Research Notes in Mathematics, Vol.
94, Pitman Publishing, Boston (1984). (Unfortunately, I do not have
a copy, but it is one of the most referenced books on Macsyma.)
A very large number of papers using MACSYMA in perturbation
theory, some of them available to me.
Also the book (I have this book):
Richard H. Rand and Dieter Armbruster: Perturbation Methods,
Bifucation Theory and Computer Algebra. (Applied Mathematical
Sciences, Vol. 65). Springer-Verlag, New York, Berlin (1987).
This book uses exclusively MACSYMA. Its Appendix
"INTRODUCTION TO MACSYMA", pp.215-233
constitutes (slightly revised) the
INTROMAX.HTML
file of Maxima and this is acknowledged.
Sometime, perhaps in summer or later, I will discuss the
possibility of making available (perhaps even through the
CVS) a list of some papers I have available in engineering
using Macsyma. A short list I mean.
Many thanks again and best regards,
Nikos
