I have the following problem.

\documentclass[a4paper,12pt,oneside]{book}
\maketitle
\tableofcontents*

\chapter*{Introduction}\addcontentsline{toc}{chapter}{\textbf{Introduction}}

And the problem is that I want the running title (in the headers of pages of this chapter) to be only "Introduction" while it is "Table of Contents". I've tried to use

\chaptermark{Introduction}

but then the running title is "Chapter 0. Introduction". I would like remove "Chapter 0" and to leave only "Introduction". The only thing I know that removes the word Chapter from running title in the page headers is

\backmatter

but it completely destroys the numbering of chapters which I don't want to change and creates unnecessary empty pages. I would be very thankfull for any help.

    the book class doesn't use the heading text of \chapter* to form running heads. you can provide the desired running head content by inputting a line \markboth{Introduction}{Introduction} immediately after the \chapter* line. – barbara beeton Oct 05 '17 at 02:04

  • Welcome to TeX.SX! You can have a look at to familiarize yourself further with our format. Please provide a complete minimal working example (MWE). – CarLaTeX Oct 05 '17 at 03:10
  • Maybe package unnumveredtotoc can help (linked in tge LaTeX wikibok). But the might be something better. Can you provide a bit more context? Is that the only chapter without a numver or should all be unnumbered? – Johannes_B Oct 05 '17 at 05:16
