I have the ones on Programming and on Graphics, and have examined but not referred to them yet. They're big as well as expensive. I think that if you are or plan to be an **intensive** user of Mma and can afford them, they're worth it. For casual users it could be hard to find what you want or even to determine whether your questions are answered there.

Springer publishes a 4-volume set of Mathematica reference books by Michael Trott, at $80 per volume.
They are described at http://mathematicaguidebooks.org
Has anyone seen hard-copies of these? What do you think? Are they useful? Are they a waste of money?
