Page 23, Lines 6-8: The parameters Type, CellName, and ListName should be EltType, CellType, and ListType, respectively. (thanks to Charlie Burns)
Page 23, Line -15: We need a * and not a comma before LIST. That is to say, the line should read typedef struct CELL *LIST;

Page 182, last line of Example 4.16: "6+3-1" is better expressed as "3+6-1" to match the formula. (Thanks to Arunprasad Marathe)
Page 182-183: The idea behind the "Distributing Distinguishable Objects" is flawed. The formula given there assumes that the order of the items within the bins matters, e.g., in Example 4.17 it is different if a child receives an apple then a pear, or a pear then an apple. If we do not care about order within a bin, then the proper formula is $\prod_{j=1}^k {{m+i_j-1}\choose{i_j}}$. (Thanks to Prasad Sistla)
