3.0 out of 5 stars
A reasonably useful book,
By A Customer
This review is from: A Tex Primer for Scientists (Studies in Advanced Mathematics) (Paperback)
If you are learning how to use plain TeX, this is a pretty good book. It teaches you the basics quickly and quite well, but it fails as far as more refined uses are concerned. The more difficult commands, especially related to vertical and horizontal glueing are not properly explained, and the appendix about LaTeX is altogether pretty useless. Still, since experimentation is the name of the game in TeX, you might as well have this book on your shelf rather than some other, especially if you would rather dispose with cute drawings and other nonsense you do find in other TeX user manuals.
