Are you sure that the last page of the book doesn't have some instructions on who to contact in order to have the real book shipped to you? Maybe some twisted person(s) at O'Reilly thought it would be funny to sell a "gag book" per se, with the intention of later shipping them the real content? Or maybe they decided to save paper and you can read the real text by using a black light?
.oO( Did I get these ideas from a previous O'Reilly publication? "Publisher Crazy-Idea Handbook" or some such... )

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).

or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
