This book is an introduction to LaTeX for those who have not used LaTeX before. It is a wonderful software to typeset your document and especially helpful for post graduate students to write and structure their theses or dissertations. With LaTeX, you can effectively integrate your text with tables, figures, math symbols and references. The approach in this book is dedicated to Window users.

The beauty about LaTeX is that you don’t really need to know everything. Most people only learn the basics and upgrade their skills continuously using internet resources. My book is to help you do that – to grasp the essentials! There are many books on LaTeX in the market but it is difficult to find a book that can teach you from the very basics including how to compile for the first time.  Learning LaTeX can be time consuming and this book is your short cut to it.
