Tufte also formats his pages so that they are not symmetric.
|

Instead, each page is the same and all the marginalia appear on the right

side of each page.

After experimentation, I agree that this option is best.

A symmetric layout appeared strange, to say the least.

Tufte also formats his pages asymmetrically.

This means that the marginalia appear on the right side on each page, whether

I like a lot of what Tufte has done.

I have a good Calculus book, but it requires extensive notes to adapt it
