For over two decades, this comprehensive manual has been the standard
introduction and complete reference for writing articles and books
containing mathematical formulas. If the reader requires a streamlined
approach to learning LaTeX for composing everyday documents, Grätzer's
(c) 2014 Practical LaTeX may also be a good choice.
In this carefully revised fifth edition, the Short Course has been
brought up to date and reflects a modern and practical approach to LaTeX
usage. New chapters have been added on illustrations and how to use
LaTeX on an iPad.
Key features*:*
- An example-based, visual approach and a gentle introduction with the
Short Course
- A detailed exposition of multiline math formulas with a Visual Guide
- A unified approach to TeX, LaTeX, and the AMS enhancements
- A quick introduction to creating presentations with formulas
From earlier reviews:
Grätzer's book is a solution.
--European Mathematical Society Newsletter
There are several LaTeX guides, but this one wins hands down for the
elegance of its approach and breadth of coverage.
--Amazon.com, Best of 2000, Editor's choice
A novice reader will be able to learn the most essential features of
LaTeX sufficient to begin typesetting papers within a few hours of
time... An experienced TeX user, on the other hand, will find a
systematic and detailed discussion of LaTeX fea
tures.
--Report on Mathematical Physics
A very helpful and useful tool for all scientists and engineers.
