Section 4.11.1
The `rowSums` formula should read
\[
\mathbf{A1}=\sum_{i}^{n}\mathbf{A}_{*i},
\]
and the `colSums` formula should read
\[
\mathbf{A}^{\top}\mathbf{1}=\sum_{i}^{m}\mathbf{A}_{i*}
\]
Note: it is a little bit confusing. Following R semantics, the rowSums() method means "row-wise sum" which is the same as "sum of columns"; and vice versa, the colSums() method means "column-wise sum", which can be computed as the sum of matrix rows.
Section 6.1
The dimensions of matrix $$\mathbf{V}$$ are $$\mathbf{V}\in\mathbb{R}^{n\times k}$$.Formula (6.1) should read
\[
\begin{equation}
\boldsymbol{a}_{pca}=\mathbf{V}^{\top}\left(\boldsymbol{a}-\boldsymbol{\mu}\right).\label{eq:to-pca}
\end{equation}
\]
Formula (6.2) - (6.3) should read
\[
\begin{eqnarray}
\boldsymbol{a} & = & \left(\mathbf{V}^{\top}\right)^{\text{-}1}\boldsymbol{a}_{pca}+\boldsymbol{\mu} \\
& = & \mathbf{V}\boldsymbol{a}_{pca}+\boldsymbol{\mu}.\label{eq:from-pca}
\end{eqnarray}

Section 8.3
In Step (1): Setup working directories and acquire data, the URL of the Wikipedia XML dump has since changed. The third command of Step (1) should read:
