The errata below I sent to Matthew and he intends to add them to his site as he finds the time :) Other errata you can find at his errata page.

where erratum correct
page 47 int *&device = dc.m_device; int& device = dc.m_device;
page 213 template <typename T, int N>
char (&byte_array_of_same_dimension_as(T (&)[N]))[N];
#define dimensionof(x) sizeof(byte_array_of_same_dimension_as((x))); 		#define dimensionof(x) sizeof(byte_array_of_same_dimension_as((x)))
