This list
does not contain non-mathematical typos, mistakes in punctuation,
additional comments or alternative explanations. In some cases
a mistake is noted but the complete correction is not given.
To see everything
- all known typos of every sort, additional comments, and all
corrections given in full - you may go either to the chapter
files listed below (quicker to open) or to the
Master file of corrections
and comments
(It may take
quite a while to open.) The "master file" has the same
margins as the textbook, so it can be used if you wish to cut
and paste. Some of the chapter files do too.
