\centerline{\bf \large Preface}

This volume has been prepared by Codemist Ltd. from the {\LaTeX}
documentation sources distributed with {\REDUCE} 3.8.  It incorporates
the User's Manual, and documentation for all the User Contributed
Packages as a second Part.  A common index and table of contents has been
prepared.  We hope that this single volume will be more convenient for
{\REDUCE} users than having two unrelated documents.  Particularly in
Part 2 the text of the authors has been extensively edited and
modified and so the responsibility for any errors rests with us.

Parts I and III were written by Anthony C. Hearn.  Part II is based on
texts by:\\
Werner Antweiler,
