Gerstein, QA76.95: The Mathematica Primer, by Coombes, Hunt, Lipsman, Osborn, Stuck: Thin, about 200 pages. Ancient - Windows 95. Too thin.
Gerstein, QA76.95: Mastering Mathematica, 2nd Edition, by Gray: About 600 pages, 1994. Has a chapter on Object Oriented Programming. Good but outdated.
Gerstein, QA76.95: Mathematica as a Tool, by Kauffman: About 400 pages, 1994. Looks ok, outdated.
Gerstein, QA76.95: Mathematica by Example, 2nd Edition, by Abell and Braselton. About 550 pages, 1997. Too much undergrad-level mathematics and not enough programming.
