Math into LaTeX

Beschreibung

AMS packages that replaced AMS-Ib-TEX, version 1.1, but the book still had an AMS-Ib-TEX-centric view. This third edition is about Ib-TEX. Where necessary, I recommend that you use packages to extend Ib-TEX's capabilities. For typesetting mathematics, I strongly recommend that you use the AMS packages. AMS packages, version 2.0 The American Mathematical Society released version 2.0 ofthe AMS packages in 1999. This third edition covers the changes made in this release. Books The first and second editions of this book dealt primarily with the tasks involved in writing artides. In Part V, the third edition addresses the issues that arise when creating longer documents. In addition to chapters on BIBTEX and Makelndex, I have added a new chapter on writing books. Appendix F illustrates the impor tance of choosing a well-designed book document dass. Other changes B\1EX Ib-TEX2 has been remarkably stable since its release in 1996, becorning c the standard Ib-TEX (see Section C.1.2). Changeshave been rninor except for ad vances in using Ib-TEX with non-English languages (see the new Appendix E) and the widespread use of the PostScript CM and AMS fonts (see the new Section D.l). Reorganization and additions Due to the new emphasis on writing books, a number of sections and subsections have moved from Chapter 2 and Chapters 6-8 to the new Chapter 12.
A new chapter "A Visual Introduction to MikTeX," an open source implementation of TeX and LaTeX for Windows operating systems Another new chapter describing amsrefs, a simpler method for formatting references that incorporates and replaces BibTeX data Integrates a major revision to the amsart document class, along with updated examples

Math Into LaTeX is for the mathematician, physicist, engineer, scientist, or technical typist who needs to quickly learn how to write and typeset articles and books containing mathematical formulas, and requires a thorough reference book on all aspects of LaTeX and the AMS packages (the enhancements to LaTeX by the American Mathematical Society). Incorporates a simple, example-based, visual approach, with sample articles to demonstrate the basic structure of LaTeX and AMS articles. New chapters on MikTeX and amsrefs, as well as a major revision to the amsart document class and updated examples round out this fourth edition.

“The book under review meets the needs of mathematicians publishing mathematics in the many areas that now have to be taken into account.” (H.Kröger, zbMATH 0942.68137, 2022)

"To sum up, Grätzer book can be recommended both as a very good introductory text for beginners as well as a handy up-to-date LaTeX reference for experienced users."
