 Rather than show any bias between say mathematica or maple or derive
 definitions, we (OM) just said we'd use whatever A&S used, except it then
 turned out they changed the definitions between various printings so we
 ended up having to specify a particular version. James could fill you in
 on the gory details:-)

 Ah yes, been there, done that!
