Handbook of Typography for The Mathematical Sciences
Résumé
TeX makes typesetting for mathematical manuscripts, papers, and presentations seem simple. Like many user-friendly software, it is a powerful tool that jump starts the novice by making the basic decisions. But the more difficult decisions - like page design, running heads, formatting of equations, choices of font - are still left up to the users, many of whom don't know how to make these decisions. The Handbook of Mathematical and Technical Typesetting explains how to use TeX, LaTeX, and AMS TeX during the typesetting process so the reader can have a more active role in ensuring that their work is properly represented in print.
