Recensioner i media

"To sum up, Gratzer 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." -Mathematical Reviews (Review of a previous edition) "Writing a sufficiently long math text (lecture notes, monographs) by a non-expert TeX writer wanting to produce a text of good typographical quality requires the use of a well-documented package. Gratzer's book is a solution." -EMS Newsletter (Review of a previous edition) "This book is truly unique in its focus on getting started fast yet keeping it simple. It is indispensable for the beginner and a handy reference for the experienced user." -Bulletin of the Mathematical Association of India (Review of a previous edition)
