I recently posted a note saying that the second printing of our
book was due out soon, and gave a couple of hints on how to recognize it.
Several people have mailed me, informing me of a far simpler system:
   On the back of the title page is a page full of technical information
about the book--a sample Library of Congress catalog card, the cover 
image credit, etc. At the bottom is the following sequence of symbols:

ABCDEFGHIJ-DO-943210

Apparently, in the second printing, the first letter of this sequence
will be gone, and it will read:

 BCDEFGHIJ-DO-943210

So there's a quick-and-easy way to identify the 2nd printing.
