<p>"Introduction to Physical Oceanography, 2nd edition" by John Knauss is a popular oceanography textbook. I bought a copy. It ends at page 308, apparently in the middle of the index. (It seems unlikely that the index would end at "tidal," without having entries for such oceanography favorites as "water, "wind," and "waves.")</p>

<p>I sent an inquiry to the publisher. The publisher was not helpful. I sent the book back to the vendor, and requested a replacement. The replacement was identical.</p>

<p>Does anyone have a copy of the book with index pages beyond 308? Or are they all like that?</p>

Does anyone have a copy of the book with index pages beyond 308? Or are they all like that?
