The Greek Letters chapter of the 11th edition of the AMA Manual of Style not only includes a table of capital and lowercase Greek letters, but addresses when to use the Greek letter rather than the word and when capital letters are appropriate after a Greek letter. New to the chapter is a discussion of Greek letters in an electronic format.
