Nearly a year after Borde's highly acclaimed introductory book, TeX By Example, arrives Mathematical TeX by Example, featuring indepth discussion of typesetting mathematics. This book covers the features of AmSTeX, LamSTeX, and Plain TeX, and contains a series of examples illustrating the uses of these packages. Borde's WYSIWYG approach is carried throughout the book-- left-hand pages contain TeX input, with occasional notes given below, and right-hand pages contain the corresponding output to allow readers to see what the command should be for specific typesetting issues. This book provides an introduction for scientists who are interested in making a change to AmSTeX. * * Examples show how a wide variety of standard pieces of mathematics can be typset--integrals, differential equations, matrices, communative diagrams, and equation alignments of many kinds * Extensive glossary/index covers all mathematical commands of Plain TeX and AmSTeX, plus many common TeX commands--items can be found by command name or topic * Provides a useful introduction to new AmSTeX users such as chemists or physicists * Uses examples from other well-known mathematical works to illustrate specific typesetting techniques and commands * Examples introduce special packages such as PiCTeX, dvips, and LamSTeX * Addresses how to handle non-English languages such as German and Russian fonts * Covers examples of all the main approaches to incorporating graphics with TeX, including Postscript prictures * Outlines how TeX makes typeface decisions and how users can impose thier own choices * Covers a large number of available typefaces and provides examples of how to make typeface changes * Example type faces include AMS Euler/Computer Concrete, Math Time/Times-Roman, and LucidaNew Math/LucidaBright * Reproduces the commands used to produce the book, focusing on new commands introduced to make mathematical typesetting and book formatting easier * Provides a reading list for materials cited

This is the fourth edition of the standard introductory text and complete reference for scientists in all disciplines, as well as engineers. This fully revised version includes important updates on articles and books as well as information on a crucial new topic: how to create transparencies and computer projections, both for classrooms and professional meetings. The text maintains its user-friendly, example-based, visual approach, gently easing readers into the secrets of Latex with The Short Course. Then it introduces basic ideas through sample articles and documents. It includes a visual guide and detailed exposition of multiline math formulas, and even provides instructions on preparing books for publishers.

Are you in a hurry? A friend received a letter from the American Mathematical Society (AMS) inform ing him that his paper had been accepted for publication in the Proceedings of the AMS. If he submitted it as a lt-TEX document, it would be published in 20 weeks any other format would take almost a year before the appearance in print of the article. The friend had It-T EX installed on his computer on Friday, borrowed the manu script of this book, and mailed a It-T EX version of his article to the AMS on Monday. First Steps in YI'EX is for the mathematician, physicist, engineer, scientist, or technical typist who needs to quickly learn how to write and typeset articles con taining mathematical formulas. A quick introduction to E\TE)C and the AMS enhancements is provided so that you will be ready to prepare your first article (such as the sample articles on pages 53-54 and 67-69) in only a few hours. Specific topics can be found in the table of contents, the Quick Finder, or the index. While the index is Jt.TEX -oriented, the Quick Finder lists the main topics using terminology common to wordprocessing applications. For example, to find out how to italicize text, look under italics in the Quick Finder. Setting the stage Watch someone type a mathematical article in I!lfE)C. You will see how to • Type the document using a text editor to create a Jt.TE)C source file.

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 © 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. —Review of Astronomical Tools

For more than 30 years, this comprehensive manual has been the standard introduction and complete reference for writing articles and books containing mathematical formulas. This sixth edition uses a slightly changed title, Text and Math into LaTeX, to emphasize the importance of text in mathematical/scientific composition. Sections that contained commands no longer much needed (such as \includeonly) and the introductory sections to PDF (now ubiquitous) have been omitted. Many sections are now enhanced with discussion of new and useful packages. An occasional encouragement for the reader to consult ChatGPT for confirmation on various points illustrates the positive relationship between ChatGPT and LaTeX. The new Chapter 17 describes recent developments that enhance, or replace, BibTeX and the new Appendix C, introduces the reader to ChatGPT. Key features: An example-based, visual approach and agentle 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 A detailed approach to creating illustrations Extras are provided on SpringerLink for the following chapters: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 7, 10, 11, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18 and Appendices A, B Extras for Appendices A & B can be found in Extras for Chapter 18.

This classic guide contains four essays on writing mathematical books and papers at the research level and at the level of graduate texts. The authors are all well known for their writing skills, as well as their mathematical accomplishments. The first essay, by Steenrod, discusses writing books, either monographs or textbooks. He gives both general and specific advice, getting into such details as the need for a good introduction. The longest essay is by Halmos, and contains many of the pieces of his advice that are repeated even today: In order to say something well you must have something to say; write for someone; think about the alphabet. Halmos's advice is systematic and practical. Schiffer addresses the issue by examining four types of mathematical writing: research paper, monograph, survey, and textbook, and gives advice for each form of exposition. Dieudonne's contribution is mostly a commentary on the earlier essays, with clear statements of where he disagrees with his coauthors. The advice in this small book will be useful to mathematicians at all levels.
