Subject:structuring chapters in a book. From:Becca <becca_price -at- yahoo -dot- com> To:tech2wr-l <techwr-l -at- lists -dot- techwr-l -dot- com> Date:Fri, 24 May 2013 07:56:25 -0700 (PDT)
I'm editing a book of 37 chapters, each presented by a different author in their area of specialty. I'm supposed to come up with a general chapter structure that everyone will be using. This is a highly technical reference book that will be used by people studying for a certification exam.
My question is: I need a standard header that can be used for the main body of the text. Main Body is out. Any suggestions on how I can differentiate between the Introduction and the body of the text?
Regards,
Becca
