Corrections (2003)

From the December 2003 issue of the Socialist Standard

Our apologies for the number of annoying errors that crept into last month's issue which rendered some passages incomprehensible or made them say the opposite of what was intended:

In the article "Another World" on page 4. the sentence in the paragraph at the top of the second column-should have read "so that it does not operate to the undue - in capitalist terms - benefit of the big boys".

In the article on "Justice" on page 6. at the end of the first paragraph the word "This" should have appeared before the last sentence beginning "might just include".

In the review of the book on the "First Darwinian Left" on page 16. the passage in brackets at the top of the third column should have read "though he does seem to have anticipated Stephen Jay Gould's theory of 'punctuated equilibrium'".

Finally, in the first item in "Voice from the Back”, the word "for" was omitted between "Bad pews" and "the shareholders?".

Once again, our apologies. 
Editorial Committee.

Ouch.

I hope Manchester Branch rustled up a (quorate) mob to hunt down the 2003 Socialist Standard proofreader.
