Minor change:

"The Preface contains not only the normal book conventions and in
depth overview, but a potted history of TPJ, which makes for a fun
read. He notes that this book contains 70 of the 247 articles written
for TPJ. Given that the other two volumes will contain 40 and 47
articles respectively, making a total of 157, that leaves 90
unaccounted for. There may have been a little repetition, but not much
according to the comments. Much of the rest, judging by the TPJ web
site, relate to Perl news, competitions and systems oriented things
like general IPC, Macs and NT things. It doesn't seem that many of the
Computer Science articles are actually missing. That makes the book
more of a related subset, than a 'best of', I'd say."

New version attached.

Someone will put it on the site soon :)
