I noticed a Springer-Verlag advertisement in a recent issue of AmStat
News for the book "The Bootstrap and Edgeworth Expansion" by Peter
Hall.  There was a little "splat" on top of the ad that read "Newly
Corrected Printing".  Since I had bought the book last winter when it
first came out I called Springer and asked for an errata sheet.  They
mailed me a new copy of the book instead, which arrived today.  (I
still don't know what, exactly, was wrong with the first printing.)

Curiously the little "splat" is gone from the latest ad in the
December issue.

I thought that some other statisticians might want to know about this.
