seems like printing errors were fixed
I just received this book. It has page numbers (prior copies did not). After quickly looking through the book, I do not notice any text missing, specifically on the left side of the pages. (I would compare against the specific pages prior reviewers have taken photos of, but I do not know which pages they are because there were previously no page numbers.)

Missing Page Numbers and Content
Like many others here, these books are misprinted. There are no page numbers or chapter designations. That and there is consistently missing information on the left side of every page; diagrams and text are just absent. It seems like either the printer was misfiring that day, or a layer for this book was set to not print. Regardless, this is a blatant quality control issue. MULTIPLE people didn’t do their jobs on this one.Amazon is sending me a replacement, I hope I don’t get another dud. If I do, I will be contacting the publisher.

Glad I got it.
I needed this for my college course. My college uses eBooks, but when I’m dealing with a subject I’m not comfortable with I’d prefer to have a book that I can hold in my hands and flip back and forth across the pages.

No Page Numbers!
Well… I finally got around to perusing my new book, and I’m paging through, and something just seemed off. I went to the index to dig up something on occupant load calcs, I start looking for the page, and there’s no page numbers. Throughout the entire volume. So, it’s got a table of contents, and an index, but no page numbers. Hm. I suppose I could tab it out like my code books, but… If the publisher happens to see this, and you’d like to send me a copy with page numbers, hey, I’d really appreciate it. I already wrote my name on the cover in Sharpie, so I can’t really return it.Based on what I can see so far, it could be a useful tool. It looks like it’s a more visual code commentary, which could be helpful.Giving it 2 stars for lack of page numbers, content looks pretty good so far.Edit: After reading other reviews, I went back to look through the book, and there are obvious instances of missing text. I’m sending the book back.
