One thing people need to understand about publishing a book: the author
isn't always responsible for errors that get into the published edition.
Editors sometimes introduce errors also, and don't always return an edited
manuscript to the author for review before publication.  I was surprised
that the posted list of errata in Shafer's book was so short.
