The LaTeX Companions Boxed Set - A Complete Guide and Reference for Preparing, Illustrating, and Publishing Technical Documents

This attractively priced boxed set comprises the four most authoritative books on the LaTeX software system for typesetting documents. Because LaTeX is especially good for technical documents and is freely available for almost any computer system, it has become a lingua franca of the scientific world. The first book in the set, written by LaTeX's creator, Leslie Lamport, offers a concise user guide and reference manual for novices and experts alike. The next three books, whose authors have taken a lead role in the development and dissemination of LaTeX's most recent versions, provide further information on tools and techniques available for more complex typesetting needs, for incorporating graphics into documents, and for publishing technical text on the Web. Whether you are new to LaTeX or want to be sure that your LaTeX library is current and complete, you will find a useful place for this set on your reference shelf.
