The following hyperlinked pdf. file is the third chapter of the GEMTAM book, put into the Elegance Book Design Template with a page size of 8.5 x 11. Obviously, this will not be the actual page size of the book. I chose these FastPencil Preview settings specifically for this post. Feel free to download it, read it and share it with anyone you want by printing it out or emailing it. There are 41 pages, the file size is 1.1 Mb and it contains the following sections:

The co-authors, project manager and editors of the GEMTAM project will undoubtedly further modify, add to, delete from and/or rearrange these sections. Until the book is ready for publication, anything is possible. But in its current state, it can be considered a more or less edited and near final draft. If and when this chapter does change, I will point the hyperlink to the updated, pdf. file and post a notice here so people can get the latest incarnation of it. (Latest Updated File is GEMTAM Ch. 3 Multispouse Update 1.)
