title: LaTeX: remove blank page after a \part or \chapter
body: <p>How to remove a blank page that gets added automatically after \part{} or \chapter{} in a book document class?</p>
  
  <p>I need to add some short text describing the \part. Adding some text after the part command results in at least 3 pages with an empty page between the part heading and the text:</p>
  
  <ol>
  <li>Part xx</li>
  <li>(empty)</li>
  <li>some text</li>
  </ol>
  
  <p>How to get rid of that empty page?</p>
  
  <p>P.S. <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/491904/latex-how-to-remove-blank-pages-coming-between-two-chapters-in-appendix">Latex: How to remove blank pages coming between two chapters IN Appendix?</a> is similar but it changes the behavior for the rest of the text while I need to remove the empty page for this one \part command only.</p>
