Section 2.2 says:
Sometimes an alternative called additive notation is used, in which a * b is denoted as a + b, and a^N is denoted as N * a.
It should say:
Sometimes an alternative called additive notation is used, in which a * b is denoted as a + b, and a^N is denoted as Na.
Notes:
The original text refers to Appendix E some sentences later:
"Appendix E elucidates the correspondence between the two notations."
In the Appendix E the notation "Na" is used, whereas the original text uses the notation "N*a".
