IMPORTANT NOTES
(1) At present, only chapters 14-30 are available online. Other chapters will be added as soon as they are processed. Please note that Footnotes and the Bibliography are in separate files. You are recommended to download these as well as any chapters in which you are interested.
(2) The book is in PDF files (readable using Adobe Acrobat Reader).
These files contained scanned pages from the book using medium-quality
resolution to achieve a compromise between quality and file size. The pages
are therefore completely accurate and have the pagination of the original
book, but unfortunately cannot be searched electronically.
(3) To preserve the pagination of the original book, some blank pages are included.
(4) If you find errors in the web site, please let me know by email.
