The book style introduces empty pages so that all chapters start on odd-numbered pages. However, the running head is printed on these pages, which looks a bit odd. From a few actual books, it seems that standard operating procedure is to leave a completely blank sheet, with no page number or running head, but naturally count it as a page. Has anybody created a style to accomplish that? Thanks.
