TRANSCRIBER'S NOTE
Blank space in some sample documents in the text is denoted by ____.
Footnotes are all within a specific Table, including the Table of Contents. They are positioned at the bottom of that Table, as in the original text, and are denoted by [*] or [**].
Page numbering of the original text has been retained. It is in the form a-b, where a is a Chapter number or Appendix letter, and b is the sequential number within that section. For example B-3 is the third page in Appendix B.
Obvious punctuation errors have been corrected after careful comparison with other occurrences within the text and consultation of external sources.
Fractions in the original text are mostly full-height format, eg 1/2, and have been left in that form. Some are half-height and have been converted to Unicode fractions eg ½ ¾ whenever possible.
