This book has many pages missing. It is unclear if they were blank and therefore left out of the reprint I used, or if they aren't in the original text, either (if you have an original and can advise me, please do so).

In any case, no content appears to be missing, except possibly for a Table of Contents. I have therefore provided one, though it is probably less useful than the Index. Its location on pp. 3-10 is a guess, since many of the early pages are unnumbered.

Please note: the entire book has not yet been processed, so not every page has been linked-in here.
