Indexes
As these indexes were generated for the printed edition, the page numbers refer to the printed version. It would be a massive job to hyperlink these to the actual entries, and it would be far easier for you to use a printed edition or the Kindle version to review an entry. I have left the Table of Contents with the original page numbers, which may be of help to get an approximate location. Unfortunately, the indentation has also been lost pasting it in, I will work my way through this to correct it, whenever I can; but again, a Printed or Kindle version is invaluable here.
