Dear Tony, I think that you are right. d_theta in eq. 40 should be in radians and not in degrees. It’s nice that people are reading books carefully.

The equation 40 on the previous page is correct. But the authors seems wrongly treated “Δθ” as angle not radian when plot Figure 1.13, therefore the y- axis in Figure 1.13 missed a factor of “Pi/180”. Thanks in advance if anyone could confirm this.
