in table 2-3: in the first column (band_id) change 3 to 5

and 4 to 6. The sentence before the table should read as follows:

If John Lydon is represented by musician ID 2, Public Image Limited
is band ID 5, and the Sex Pistols are band ID 6, one section of the
band_musician table would look like Table 2-3.

on what used to be lines -7 and -10 of code, removed "+

junk". Then changed line 7 of code to read:

String str;

and added these lines right after it:

if ( value == null ) {
str = "";
}
else {
str = value.toString();
}

This makes p. 77 start in a different place.

added the following to the end of the last para.

Whenever possible, our books use RepKover (tm), a durable and
flexible lay-flat binding. If the page count exceeds RepKover's limit,
perfect binding is used.
