Errata for 2nd edition

(These will be corrected in the third edition, which is expected in late 2009.)

 

Errors are divided into three categories – (i) those affecting equations and calculations, and errors of fact and (ii) typos that do not affect equations, calculations, etc., and those that are not errors of fact, and (iii) changes that might remove ambiguity, improve clarity, etc.
