NOTE: There is a difference between a printing and an edition. As more copies of a text
are needed, the publisher makes a print run, which is called a printing. At that time any
errors can be corrected.
To determine which printing you have, look at the bottom of the page opposite the
Preface page. If you have the first printing, the numbers will be:
10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1
At each successive printing, one number is removed from the right side. If you have the
second printing, the numbers will be:
10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2
and so on.

Where to Submit Corrections: The following corrections are expected to made before
the second printing. The author greatly appreciates any reports of errors found in the text.
