Steve/All,

My first reaction was the same as yours.  The paging is an aggravation and
inability ot copy a greater aggravation.

Experimenting with the slider (right margin) produced page numbers and
slow/careful manipulation brought any page/pages desired.

Enlargement to 125 or 150 percent makes text easy to read.

There is discussion of Foucault theory of discipline etc. at page 40.  Page
and line reference are certainly easier to transmit than copying.
Find  "The police appears" ,  part of a quote on  page 40,
and follow for a few paragraphs.  This is material I might have copied, if
only for myself.

Any of you who use the Encyclopedia Britannica on-line, as I have, for a few
months, know that on-line search and instant access to references, makes
page-turning research totally obsolete.
