What is Math books: Definition and 70 Discussions

Math rock is a style of progressive and indie rock with roots in bands such as King Crimson and Rush as well as 20th-century minimal music composers such as Steve Reich. It is characterized by complex, atypical rhythmic structures (including irregular stopping and starting), counterpoint, odd time signatures, angular melodies, and extended, often dissonant, chords. It bears similarities to post-rock.

    LaTeX Why are modern prints of math books not printed in LaTeX?

    Title says it all. I was reading my textbook today and it dawned on me that not a single textbook on mathematics that I've read has been printed in LaTeX. Instead, I believe it's printed in Times New Roman. At any rate, I think the font style looks much worse than the standard LaTeX font. Does...

    Studying Mastering Math: The Importance of Re-reading and Understanding

    Is it common to re-read entire sections of math? Whenever I study advanced math, I always find that I need to read a section two times over two days to understand any of it. This can even require more re-reads if the section is highly theoretical (ie. first exposure to precise limits). I...
