520    "The sources that we have conveying information about the 
       early Greek philosophers are far removed from the original
       texts. Manuscripts from the era were disseminated by 
       scribes, making copies of a text. The text that formed the
       basis for the scribe was more likely than not a copy of a 
       copy of a copy. Scribes are imperfect conduits of 
       information. In addition to the challenges faced in 
       ascertaining accuracy of the base text, there are errors 
       that often occur in transcription of the base text. There 
       are errors of omission: Homeoteleuton occurs when a 
       transcription skips words because a subsequent word has 
       the same or a similar ending. Homeoarchy occurs when the 
       transcriber skips lines, because of the similarity of the 
       beginning of the lines. Haplography occurs when the 
       transcriber copies once a term that appears twice in the 
       base text. There are errors of addition. Dittography 
       occurs when the transcriber writes a term twice that 
       appeared once in the base text. Contamination occurs when 
       a transcriber inserts text that was not in the base text. 
       There are errors of transposition. Metathesis occurs when 
       a transcriber reverses letters, words, or phrases from the
       base text. Finally, but not exhaustively, there are errors
       of alteration. These errors occur when atranscriber 
       attempts, deliberately or not, to make sense of the base 
       text in the transcription."--|cProvided by publisher.
