I'm not such a fan of trying to cram everything-mathematically-relevant into a single huge book (and it is huge - 1048 pages).

Anyway, this reminds me of a rather different initiative in the same vein: The building of Mathematical principles based on the expediences of Computer Science: CONCRETE MATHEMATICS

by Donald Knuth, Ronald Graham and Oren Patashnik.
