This document is designed to be a comprehensive summary of the University of Manchester undergraduate physics syllabus 2015-2018.
The master-doc.tex file will import and compile individual volumes. Each volume will be comprised of individual chapters. These chapters should be edited in isolation of each volume.
Yes, even in TeX.
Each volume is split into volumes and volumes call individual chapter files using the \include command. Note that \include cmmds CANNOT be nested, so don't do it. All formatting is handled by the parent file hence, chapters should only contain text and no global formatting. Commands and custom environments should carry through as well.
Do not give your files names like "chapter_01.tex" or "figure_03.png", i. e. try to avoid using numbers in file-names: if the numbering LaTeX gives them automatically, is different from the one you gave (and this will likely happen) you will get confused.
