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".
