## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great book, no hesitation
*by S***Z on December 9, 2012*

I looked at any single review of the offered similar titles in Amazon and decided to purchase this one. I am happy. Here are my reflections:1. Great size, so a serious reader can read and practice it in less than a week and become a working LaTexer!2. The chapters are incremental3. To the extent I practiced it the examples are all correct and working4. Full of examples that can solve the problemsAre there LaTex problems that have not been addressed by this book? Of course. There are so many subtle ones that one needs to search internet to get a good handle on them.I recommend the book to all beginners.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ As a LaTeX novice, this book has been invaluable to me
*by D***N on March 24, 2018*

I was an absolute beginner using LaTeX, and indeed I still am because I use such a limited subset of its features. This book covers everything a novice needs to know, from installing to using. I write CS papers and technical reports, and rarely need the depth LaTeX offers for complex mathematical equations, so this book is exactly what I need.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ INFORMATIVE, Well Organized, Not crammed with HOW TO do Equations.  Poor TOC
*by M***K on April 6, 2015*

TOC needsThis guide is packed full of useful information a beginner can absorb, and, it's not just aimed at academic writers preparing technical documents or thesis loaded with complex equations. I particularly liked the introduction to the concepts behind LaTeX, why it was created, how to install it (Windows, Mac or Linux Distributions), then slowly easing into basic formatting and organization. It covers the most important packages to know about for creating Professionally Typeset looking print, for example Microtype, Geometry etc... It focuses more on Environments, Sectioning, Formatting, Class Types and general Organization before getting jumping headlong into Equations, Tables, Graphics, etc. etc. But, it might take a while to see by glancing over the Table of Contents.What I didn't care for was the table of contents. It's overwhelming with too much useless detail. The TOC points out repeatedly that every chapter has a Time For Action, What Just Happened, Summary and Pop and Quiz sections without saying anything specific (many chapters have numerous Time For Action and What Just Happened sections) That just makes the TOC difficult to skim over to find the crucial section you might need at a given moment. So, I'd recommened that they Fix it in a revision.That being said, this is the best, most concise guide I've seen yet on scripting LaTeX.
