Some navigational notes:

The foregoing gives a listing of the topics covered in the supportive modules. In any of the modules, if a highlighted word is accompanied by a number, it brings up a footnote or a reference.

In general, if you click on the 'Back' button it will bring to to the point of departure in the module from which you came; this may be different from those listed at the bottom. Even if the module from which you came is listed at the bottom, it is still preferable to use the 'back' button, because the explicit bottom-of-page hot-spot will return you to the beginning of the module, and you will have to scroll down to get back to where you were.
