Easier - probably yes.  But Bob Chassell's book is distributed under
GFDL, which may be a good choice for documentation, but is an extremely
bad choice for a book.  Contributing to a GFDL book is pointless IMO.
(I might release my book on some CC license one day, but then it would
have to be an ND variant.)
