Right. I thought the book was a mess because the formatting was inherently something that ePub 2 couldn't handle. But it sounds like, no, the book was just release in a very poorly formatted state by the publisher.

So you are saying the poor implementation was a larger factor in the ugly results than any deficiency in EPUB 2? Does EPUB 3 improve 2 columns over using EPUB 2?

I really am surprised. I know that the big publishers have released messy books before. But a big book from one of the most popular authors in the world, you'd figure there'd be some QC there.
