[Transcriber's Note:


For the ASCII version of this e-book, letters with a macron over them
have been represented as [=o], and letters with a breve as [)u].

Page numbers from the original book have been added to asterisks that
indicate notes in the Appendix (e.g. [*3]) in order to make it easier to
match them to their corresponding notes. Page 61 has two notes: [*61a]
and [*61b]. Footnotes are in the same format, without the asterisks
(e.g. [1], [2])

Please see the end of this book for more detailed notes on the text.]
