3.3.6 TOC Guideline #6: Place the TOC at the Front of the Book
Place the HTML TOC towards the beginning of the book and not at the end of the book. This ensures that a customer paging through the book from the beginning encounters the TOC naturally. Incorrect placement of the TOC affects the accuracy of the “Last Page Read” feature. Correct placement ensures that the TOC appears in sample downloads of the book.

There is much that is comical in the Guidelines, but this one is especially rich, worrying about "a customer paging through the book from the beginning," when Amazon does its level best to PREVENT customers from doing that. The average reader never sees the cover when he opens the book, never sees the TOC or title page, and never sees the perhaps vital information in the prologue etc.
