Finally broke down and got a copy of this! Standards for book production are inconsistent these days even for university presses, so I was a litte apprehensive about what this would look like.

Perhaps someday a typesetting language will become standardized to the point where papers can be submitted to the American Mathematical Society from computer to computer via telephone lines.
