This is a follow-on from "LaTeX for Complete Novices" with an emphasis on typesetting aspects usually required in a PhD thesis, such as displaying code listings, algorithms, theorems, bibliographies and glossaries.

The author has used the LaTeX typesetting language since 1991 and has written a number of packages available on the Comprehensive TeX Archive Network (CTAN), including the popular "datatool" and "glossaries" packages. She has also taught LaTeX in training courses at the University of East Anglia and for the UK TeX User Group. This series developed from her course material.
