Missprints in the book

For those not having too much statistics background, there will probably be a need on reading some stuff yourself.

Zuur et al: Mixed Effects Models and Extensions in Ecology with R, 2009. Springer. ISBN: 978-0-387-87457-9, is a good book for non-statisticians, which is available as electronic book.
