The text for this electronic version of the book was taken from an original printed form, revised for XHTML/CSS and to follow our own formatting preferences. Pagination of the original edition has been included.
The table of contents is a reasonable representation of the table of contents from the original printing, although the leader dots have been added to the current presentation.
In the original printing, all images were provided only in black and white; in the current presentation, many of these images are now given in color. For an illustration that represents a reversed image, a supplmental version has been created to show it in a “normal” orientation.
