      The book "Visual Quantum Mechanics" by Bernd Thaller includes a CD-ROM. I didn't use the software, but I found the book interesting.

      EDIT: I'm not sure if the latest edition still includes the CD-ROM.

      EDIT2: There are some materials on the book's website, http://vqm.uni-graz.at/index.html

      A very good physics book is 'Visual Quantum Mechanics' and its sequel, 'Advanced Visual Quantum Mechanics'. Don't let the name fool you, this is not a picture book, it's a real mathematical physics books, but with the clearest exposition of QM I'm aware of. It's called "Visual" because of the accompanying Mathematica visualizations.
