NOTE on the images Some readers have expressed dissatisfaction that the images in the book are black and white, not full color. Using color images in the print edition would have required a price of $40 or $50 per book just to break even. Clearly this was not an option.

For the purposes of this book, sometimes demonstrating the point had to take precedence over maximum quality.
