        fm.tex
            - please modify the fm.tex file to show the
                the book title
                the authors' names
                the authors' affiliations
                the abstract and keywords
                the table of contents
                an optional preface
                an optional acknowledgements


        book.tex
            - it is a sample driver program
            - use this file to set up list of files for your book
            - we will produce the front matter for your book

            - use
                \usepackage{morgan2}
                morgan2.sty has the M&C Publishers macros

                \usepackage{natbib}
                natbib.sty supports the Author-Year style
                for the bibliography (more later)

                \usepackage{morgan-defs}
                to bring the necessary style files and define a number
                of macros we use in the production of your books


        ch01.tex
            - use one file per chapter, please
            - look for \begin{figure} to find

                \begin{figure}[hbt]
                \includegraphics[width=3.3in]{line-spaces.eps}
                \caption{Communication system block diagram.}
                \label{ch01.fig1}
                \end{figure}

            - look for \begin{table} to find out how to create a
              table WITH a \caption and use colors for the rows
              instead of using \hline that Adobe Reader does not
              display well

            - look for \begin{tabular} to find out how to create a
              table WITHOUT a \caption and use colors for the rows
              instead of using \hline that Adobe Reader does not
              display well

            - if you wish to have an index in your books, you
              will need to insert entries of the form

                \index{term to appear in index}%

              and we will produce an index using your entries
              of the type above.
              The \index{...}% should appear by itself in a
              line and it should terminate with a % to avoid
              generating extra spaces in your book.

              Please see the \index{...} entries in the files
              ch01.tex and ch02.tex. If you wish to create an
              index, you'll need the command \makeindex in the
              preamble (before \begin{document}).

              You then need to run LaTeX on book.tex. Because
              of the command \makeindex, you'll get a book.pdf
              as usual, and, this time you'll also get a file
              called book.ind. Then you need to run makeindex:

                makeindex  book

              The utility makeindex looks for a file called
              book.idx and then produces another file called book.ind

              Please see the book.tex where, after we produce
              the book.ind file, we produce the index. Make
              sure that

                \input{book.ind}

              is commented out (i.e., it is preceded with a %)
              until you produce the book.ind file. You may also
              want to look at another file called book.ilg for
              any illegal commands you may have in your .tex file.

              If you have access to "Guide to LaTeX," fourth
              edition, by Kopka and Daly, take a look at pages
              222 through 226. It is an excellent book.

              type of bibliography; for that to work one needs
              to say

                \usepackage{natbib}

              as it appears in book.tex
