5.0 out of 5 starsShort, but concise,primer
By A Customer on October 7, 1999
Format: Paperback
This rather inexpensive book is an excellent introduction to LaTeX and AMSLaTeX. While the author boasts that a friend of his typeset a mathematics article in one weekend with a copy of the book manuscript--a dubious claim that could not possibly be true except for the simplest of articles--it is still a nice first book on the macro language. In a lot of ways it is like "Learning LaTeX" and has similar coverage. I like that one too. If given the choice, I'd have to pick one of these two or Diller's book to start. Diller, though longer and more comprehensive, is just as easy to understand and may be the choice for the person with needs more ambitious than producing that weekend article.

1.0 out of 5 starsDon't buy this book...get "Math into Latex" instead
By N. Malhotra on October 26, 2005
Format: Paperback
This is basically just a subset of Gratzer's larger book. Not to say this book isn't good, but it's worth spending a few extra dollars to get the complete book.

Definitely very helpful booklet for starting up in LaTeX and this book teaches you how to write LaTeX document in very efficient and neat way, while the book is less than 100 pages (excluding appendixes and indexes)!!
You can grasp the basic idea and begin writing LaTeX document in 3 days if you are working pretty hard on that!
Very nice book for beginner!

This is a very helpful booklet if you want to get into LaTeX and AMSLaTex fast. The author teaches you to construct your own article in LaTeX in very natural and efficient way.
The book is less than 100 pages which means you can grasp the basic idea of LaTeX in 3 days if you are working on it pretty hard.
Great book if you want to learn LaTeX!
