In many ways, the Mathematica book (written by Stephen Wolfram) is the 
best option - and the one that I learned from. The physical book ceased 
to be published after version 5, but for many purposes, that book would 
still be very helpful - except that plotting changed somewhat at version 
6 and all the various dynamic features that came with later versions of 
the software.

The updated book is available in virtual form if you open the 
documentation centre and look near the top.
