The subject of mathematical writing is infused with life once again by Nick Higham. He follows up his successful HWMS volume with this much-anticipated second edition. As is Higham's style, the material is enlivened by anecdotes, unusual paper titles and humorous quotations. This handy new volume provides even more information on issues you will face when writing a technical paper or talk, from choosing the right journal in which to publish to handling your references. Its overview of the entire publication process is invaluable for anyone hoping to publish in a technical journal. The original book has been completely revised, making use of feedback from readers as well as Higham's own large file of ideas, based on his experiences in reading, writing, editing, examining and supervising theses. A Web page has been created for the book which includes updates relating to material in the book, links to references in the bibliography that are available on the Web, links to other Web pages related to mathematical writing, LaTeX and BibTeX, links to Web pages giving examples of posters and the bibliography for the book in BibTeX form.
