The Book = The Refgram = The reference grammar = Codex Woldemar etc.
i.e. John W. Cowan _The complete Lojban language_.

The Wiki contains a list (consisting of only one entry so far) of
substantive errors
in the Book. But there doesn't seem to be a list of typos.

Things like the jei/ni problem are trickier, in that the Book can't be
right, but
nor have we settled on what the Right Thing is. (Sometimes we do seem to
agree, but that only works for people who have lived through earlier
debates,
so the same debates recur and recur.)

--And.
