Section* title in header
In class book, when I made a section* with an asterisk (that is, a non-numbered section), its title does not appear in the header. There is still the title of the previous section (which is a regular one, so without *). How to make the title of a non-numbered section to be in the header?

If you want to have the section title in the table of contents as well, there is a simpler solution. Try out unnumberedtotoc.

\markright{section title}. I haven't tested this though. If you want to have the section title in the table of contents as well, there is a simpler solution. Try out unnumberedtotoc.
The smart way: Calm down and take a deep breath, read posts and provided links attentively, try to understand and ask if necessary.

\markright{section title} or \markboth{section title}{section title} would fix it. Of course it should go at the desired place within the document.Genereally I prefer KOMA-Script classes, they provide a command
\addsec for this purpose.Stefan
