C?????? 1

Many PhD students in the sciences are encouraged to produce their PhD thesis in L ATEX, particularly if their work involves a lot of mathematics. In addition, these days, L ATEX is no longer the sole province of mathematicians and computer scientists and is now starting to be used in the arts and so- cial sciences (see, for example, some of the topics listed in the TEX online catalogue [ 3 ]). This book is intended as a brief guide on how to typeset the various components that are usually required for a thesis. If you have never used L ATEX before, I recommend that you first read Volume 1:LATEX for Complete Novices[15], as this book assumes you have a basic knowl- edge of L ATEX. As with Volume 1, I"ll be using PDFLATEX and TeXWorks. If you are creating a DVI file or you are using a different editor, you"ll have to adapt the instructions.B If you are unfamiliar with terms such as "preamble", readquotesdbs_dbs20.pdfusesText_26
