Errata in Enclyclopedia of Cosmology
Kevin Krisciunas
Abstract
I have noted a number of errors, most of them quite minor, in the Encyclopedia of Cosmology (New York and London: Garland), 1993, Norriss S. Hetherington, ed. The majority occur in my mathematically verbose article, ``Fundamental cosmological parameters". Some errata were passed on to me by Prof. Ralph Alpher. In the interests of accuracy, I feel that the corrections should be publicized, since no book review will mention more than a couple of them. Also, the incorrectly typeset equations could lead to serious confusion in the minds of readers seeing such material for the first time.
