Eugene Dobry | 2 comments Hello, this book is listed as having 400 pages, which is incorrect. It actually has 334 pages of content, not counting bibliography and index.

ISBN 9781682191514

The bibliography and index can be included if the book includes them in its page count. Does the book number those pages and if so, what is the number of pages with those sections?

I noticed that the current page count in GR for this ISBN shows as 272 whereas the page count on WorldCat shows as 393.

Albert | 2404 comments Yes, in reading another post I realized that. Thanks, Sandra!


message 5: by Eugene (new)

Eugene Dobry | 2 comments Thanks for the quick response! Counting them, the WorldCat number, 393, is correct.
