Section 1.2,2nd para says:

   Path validation, in the context of this small internetwork, asserts
   that when a BGP speaker in AS65002 receives an advertisement from a
|  BGP speaker in AS65001 with the AS Path {65000, 65001}, the speaker
   can assume that AS65001 is attached to the local AS, and that AS65001
   is also attached to AS65000.

It should say:

   Path validation, in the context of this small internetwork, asserts
   that when a BGP speaker in AS65002 receives an advertisement from a
|  BGP speaker in AS65001 with the AS Path {65001, 65000}, the speaker
   can assume that AS65001 is attached to the local AS, and that AS65001
   is also attached to AS65000.
