"... at the outer edge of the element’s border box". A border box is already the combination of four "border edges" (the outer edge of a box's border), thus it's a rectangle, not a band (square ring), it has no such "outer edge" or "inner edge". So, the original sentence should be "... at the the element’s border box, which formed by the element's four border edges". Note from the Author or Editor: |

Figure 2.16 is referenced by nothing. This sentence "... that outlines do not follow the element’s rounding (and thus, have sharp corners) but box-shadows do ..." should reference both Figure 2.16 and Figure 2.17. And the reference to Figure 2.17 in this sentence "... if we overlay one on top of the other, the box-shadow covers the gaps that the outline leaves on the corners ..." should be removed. Note from the Author or Editor: |

The image in fig. 5.8 is intended to show an example of zebra-striping in the Apple Finder (which *is* actually there in Finder on my Mac), but either the underlying image didn't capture the striping, or something in the print process removed the zebra-striping from the image.
