Minor Corrections
Part I
p11 Q1.1 Solution (1) line3
It is stated ``Therefore, we have at most 10^{14} cells.’’ Since this estimate is too crude, and not needed (and contradictory to our conclusion), it should be removed. (pointed out by Xueing Wang)
p13 footnote 3 line 4 j u -> j e J e pense, donc j e suis. (pointed out by Paul Delatte)
p95 Fig. 9.1, Not wrong, but the background of (a) should be removed.
Part II
p 143 line 9 inifinitesimal -> infinitesimal (thanks to Prof Barry A Friedman)
p145 line 1 of 13.5 IS unit -> SI unit (thanks to Prof Barry A Friedman)
p146 Footnote 10 Tate -> Tait
p157 The last line of [II], the formula for dS: \frac{ x }{T} i dX_i -> \frac{ x_i }{T}dX_i
p160 (14.7) S_1 + S_2 should be S (or this is better) (thanks to Prof Barry A Friedman)
p182 last line (line 3 of16.3) Fig. 14.1 -> Fig. 14.3 (thanks to Prof Barry A Friedman)
p211 last line of the text: equals -> =
(This is due to the editorial mechanical conversion of math symbols into English words.)
p235 Warning (last lines) and nothing to do with... -> and has nothing to do with....
p246 (19.58) From the RHS the absolute sign | is missing after the summation symbol.
p248 Footnote 23 line 2: single-standard DNA -> single-stranded DNA
[Our copy editor was not biological!] Also Elife should read eLife.

p344 Two line above (27.67): se (Chapter 25) -> see (Chapter 25)
p377 One line above 29.2: E = 2PV/3 -> E = 3PV/2.
p386 Footnote 12 (29.37): The overall minus sign is missing from the RHS.
Part III
p456 34.8 line 7 digeneracies -> degeneracies (pointed out by Prof Akira Kinjo (Osaka U)).
