Fractions have been left in the form a/b except for ¼ ½ ¾. A dozen or so occurrences of 'nn a-b' have been changed to 'nn-a/b', mainly on pages 27-40, for consistency.

Footnote anchors in a table are of the form (a) and the corresponding Footnote is placed at the bottom of that table. Other Footnote anchors are of the form [A] with placement at the end of that Chapter.

Obvious typographical errors and punctuation errors have been corrected after careful comparison with other occurrences within the text and consultation of external sources.
