Missing exponents (2 squared becomes 22), missing parens, etc.
I'm also trying to read Artificial Intelligence, a Modern Approach
where I'm encountering these same (tiring) issues.
My sighted friend can't even read the Bookshare version that well, so
it's more than a screenreader issue.
And 2 squared isn't 22 no matter how much they might like it to be!
