  On page 444 and 445 there are a series of correlated errors, resulting from the fact that I wrote 'convolution' several times when it should have been 'sampling'.

This is correct in other places but I missed it here. Thanks, Erhard!

631, C 12-13 Following a suggestion of George Sheldrick, add following paragraph after last sentence of figure caption: Note that different programs may use different definitions and atom naming conventions in their chiral volume calcuation. SHELXL for example uses ASCII-alphabetic order of the atom names, and assigns positive chiral volumes for the L-amino acids. In the REFMAC/PHENIX monomer library the sign of the chiral volume is explicitly assigned for each atom, and with ligand order N CB C it is always negative for CA. If Cahn-Ingold-Prelog priority rules for absolute configuration (Sidebar 6-13) were strictly applied, cysteine would have R-configuration, all other chiral common amino acids would have S-configuration.   426
