Foreman's books are consistantly marred by small discrepancies like this. I don't understand why he cannot let someone he trust proof read his writings.
His part two book is just the same. Some mistakes are so obvious that he would have spotted them himself if he just had read through his text one more time....

Hi Stig,
As a working book editor (fiction), I have to fact check real-world information all of the time. The big 5 publishers in the US have 4 editors, the company I work for has 3 and a proofreader. The casual reader is not under any deadline pressure, but the average reader is likely to have limited knowledge of what he is reading. So, those who have corrections for any book should contact the author or publisher.
Best,
Ed
