• Page 248. In Equation (5.27), the operator $$\mathbf D$$ should be dualized as $$\mathbf D^\unicode["segoe ui symbol"]{x2605}$$. It should also be dualized in the first factor of the sandwich product in the sentence that follows this equation.

First Printing

• Page 84. In Table 2.16, both bulk duals of $$\mathbf e_4$$ should be 0. The table should look like the one on the wiki page for duals.

• Page 156. The number of multiply-adds required for transforming a line with a motor did not include the work needed to calculate $$\mathbf a$$, $$\mathbf b$$, and $$\mathbf c$$. Each cross product adds 6 multiply-adds, so the correct total for transforming a line is 54.

• Page 156. Similarly, the number of multiply-adds required for transforming a plane with a motor did not include the work needed to calculate $$\mathbf a$$. The correct total for transforming a plane is 35.
