Here we consider the recent book of Smith, {\em et al.}\footnote{

 that
 describes a new gizmo to reduce energy usage...  
 A key model equation in this study is the ideal gas law
 \begin{equation}
 PV = n \overline R T.
 \end{equation}
 In this equation $P$ represents pressure,
 $V$ the volume,
 $n$ the number of moles, $\overline R$ the universal gas constant,
 and $T$ the absolute temperature.
 
 The typical method
 of solving this problem is to.....In many cases this is deficient because....
 Hence a new method is proposed which....
 The method is applied to a set of test problems.  It is seen that....
 The authors summarize their major conclusions as follows....

 The book is generally well written....
 A small deficiency is seen in that...
 Nevertheless the strength of 
 this book is its clarity in.....and novelty in.....Those
 who are interested
 in problems in the related fields of.... would find this book
 to be useful.

{\bf Notes} 
\begin{itemize}
\item{Use the format provided here as a template;
the text is entirely yours to write. Additional 
\LaTeX~documentation is online in the ``links'' section 
of the AME 20231 web page.}
\item{Your review must consider the von Baeyer book.}
\item{One page maximum; one equation minimum.}
\item{Run your text file through a spell checker.}
\item{Always use complete sentences.}
\item{Leave two spaces after a period.  Leave one space after a comma.}
\item{Give a footnote in the precise format given below. Do not be
      redundant with the text.}
\item{Use commas or periods at the end of equations as appropriate.}
\item{Do not use contractions (such as don't).}
\item{Minimize quotations. Try very hard to have zero
quotations.
When necessary, use matched pairs of 
     single quotes, like this: ``your quote here''.}
\item{Identify all variables with words of description.}
\item{All mathematical variables, whether within
      the text or in a separate equation,
      should be written in math mode,
      e.g. ``When $x=0$, there is a singularity.''}
\item{English text within equations should be in text mode;
      use the mbox and qquad commands for
      this: $$x=1 \qquad \mbox{when} \qquad y=0.$$}
\item{Do not let your review become dominated by equations.}
\item{Avoid simplistic or trite statements such as,
     ``The authors have pointed
     the way to a method from which we can all benefit.''}
\item There will be another exciting prize for the review which, in
the instructor's opinion, has the most profound combination of
the following qualities: 
lucidity of the prose
of the review and depth of understanding of the paper displayed in
the review.  A brief award ceremony will accompany the bestowal
of the prize.
