A Guide to Writing Mathematics: Observations from Textbook Authoring and Thesis Editing

I have been accumulating observations about writing mathematics for many years.

These conclusions arose both from writing textbooks and from noting writing errors commonly made by my thesis students and in papers submitted to journals.

My first objective was to train my students, thereby reducing the time needed to edit their theses.

As the document grew, I made it publicly available in the hope that others may find it useful.

I have received a broad range of responses, mostly positive.
