Section 1.1 needs serious work.  You have a very assertive writing style
and a lot of things that you definitively state are at best debatable.
If I'd picked that up in a shop and browsed that opening, I'd put the
book down and walk away; essentially you're calling your accuracy into
question before you've even said anything about programming.
