I received a reply from the author, telling me that he'd spent a fair amount of time correcting the errors and had submitted a corrected version.
So, a couple of days later I tried removing the book file from My Kindle Content folder on my PC, and downloading the book again. Unfortunately, the new download still has the format problems. Since I have every reason to believe that there IS a corrected version, is there a method to get that version? I'm obviously not sure of the proper way to do this.
I know I've seen some discussion about this somewhere on MR, but I've been searching for it for a couple of days....
Thanks,

You should get an email from Amazon when there is an update available. Just reply to it with a Yes and it will update the ebook to the newest within a few hours.
