Corrections to 1st edition

The superseded list below may be of use to owners of previous editions, or to those revising translations made from the first edition. The original edition (1953) was revised for inclusion in RT in 1978. Further revisions and corrections were made for PSM (1998) and for RT2 (2008). Some of these corrections are listed below. They do not include the completely revised notes; or the addition of many new paragraph breaks; or the provision of translations of all material in other languages, which occurred only when the whole work was reset for the second edition; or the replacement of ‘…’ by ‘[…]’ to mark authorial omissions.
