Wow, a free download of 409pp straight from the MIT Press! Also a nice geek-warming thanks at the end, with just a little more detail than you'd sometimes see in the frontmatter (compilation time):
> This book was typeset entirely with free software and fonts. The text is set in Palatino, designed by Hermann Zapf and available as TEX Gyre Pagella. The headings are set in Latin Modern Sans, based on Computer Modern Sans, designed by Donald Knuth.
The source files were created with GNU Emacs and managed with the Mercurial revision-control system. The figure source files were compiled with
MetaPost 1.999 and Asymptote 2.31. The TEX source was compiled to PDF
using ConTeXt 2014.05.17 and LuaTeX 0.79.1. The compilations were managed with GNU Make and took 10 minutes on a 2006-vintage Thinkpad T60 laptop. All software was running on Debian GNU/Linux.
A heartfelt thank you to all who contribute to the software commons!
Edit: If anyone here works on the MIT Press website, for some reason I can't add the paperback item to my cart. When I click the link it takes me to an empty cart every time (vanilla Chrome, no plugins).
