Most inclusive info on MATLAB I've ever seen

I love this book. Although MATLAB is beyond version 4, this is a deal as a used book. I have always been able to find the most obscure detail about MATLAB functions in it, and it remains on my bookshelf. My co-workers invariably ask "Can I look at your book?", when I come up with the answer to a problem they are having. The book's strength is the amount of detail given for each function, including examples, what each option does, the algorithms that are used for the function, and also info on which MATLAB function is better to use, if there are several choices. The "see also" entries are extremely useful. If the function doesn't quite meet your needs, I've found following the "see also" entries eventually leads you to what you want. It is the only book I've seen that gives extensive detail on GUIDE functions, which is the GUI-generating portion of MATLAB. If you are a GUI programmer, the GUIDE information here is invaluable. Even though this is a used book, most of the functions haven't changed in the more recent versions of MATLAB. Still has useful information.
