Reproducibility

Earlier versions of this series of electronic books were distributed on CD-ROM. The idea is that each computed figure in the book has in its caption a menu allowing the reader to burn and rebuild the figure (many also had underlying movies). This idea persists in the Web book versions, except that now the more difficult task of installing the basic Stanford libraries is the obligation of the reader. Hopefully, as the WWW matures, this obstacle will be less formidable. Anyway, these libraries are also offered free on our web site.
