book(ams) class doesn't have abstract style
Actually, I have two problem with using the book(ams) class. First, I want to have a piece of abstract in my document just before the content list. But there is no option for this format in book(ams) class. Can I add abstract to the document manually, and how to do that? Second, when ever I compile the lyx book file, all the child document are automatically opened. How can I avoid that? Thanks for your help in advance. Bests, Laser

I'm not sure why, but the abstract was explicitly removed from the
book(AMS) layout. A book can have an abstract, so we should restore it.
If you want to add it manually, use ERT: InsertTeX Code, then
\begin{abstract}. Then out of ERT, type what you want. Then at the
end, ERT: \end{abstract}.

You can't, at least not in 1.5. I'm not sure about 1.6. LyX 1.6 (due out
Monday) may just open them in the background.
