Customer Reviews:

3 out of 5 stars One of the worst proofed books I have ever seen   August 10, 2005
 4 out of 6 found this review helpful

When I first started reading the book I found it very enjoyable but then I started noticing the typos and it became so distracting that I found myself concentrating more on them than the narrative. I found 26 typos between pages 147 and 511.

Examples

Page 389
a lieutenant (to) steer

Page 282
the most powerful political player (in)Southeast Asia

Page 377
On and off for the better (part) of a decade
