Update key-to-address-ecc-example.py
If line#24 use 'wif_compressed', it will produce a wrong Key (WIF-Compressed) started with 2.

So there should be 'wif', unless :
wif_compressed_private_key = bitcoin.encode_privkey(
    bitcoin.decode_privkey(private_key, 'hex'), 'wif_compressed')
This is also right. 
However, use the 'compressed_private_key' and 'wif_compressed' is wrong.

Update ch02.asciidoc
When I looked at the hard copy of the book, I was concerned about space on the page. The changes I have suggested could have been put closer to Figure 2.8, but as a newbie I was referring to the text, then following the process described in the text as it appeared in Figure 2.8. My vote is that it fits better where I put it. I also tried to use as few words as possible while making sure "Best Practice" was clearly emphasized as early as possible in a newbies investigations/studies/indoctrination. Pick a word.    :)

Update ch01.asciidoc
I feel this small change shifts the emphasis from the single word "lot" to both of the words "is" and "lot." By doing so you would emphasise the reality of both the depth of the Bitcoin protocol and its ecosystem.

Many people have heard that the Timechain is immutable. As a newbie, I was a little confused (ot unusual) until I did some web searches and found examples of "off Blockchain transactions." I'm not associated with Opendimes in any way other than as a customer.

Update glossary.asciidoc
It's not an exact comparison because you could have many email addresses and a single bitcoin amount could be sent to many more than one of your bitcoin addresses. From a reader's viewpoint, I feel that the new text makes the flow of the sentence clearer without getting pedantic.

Remove unneeded env var declaration
The NODE_PATH is not needed to run these examples. Also this is an unreliable way to set the environment variable anyway (didn't work for me).

[ch6] Use n instead of p for group order of EC
This is to match existing common conventions.
By convention, n, not p, is used to indicate the prime group order of the EC.
This is currently extra confusing because p *is* (by convention) used to indicate the order of the EC's finite field.

Change parameter block->blocks in description to match code
The example gets the `blocks` parameter. The preceding description says it takes the `block` parameter. This seems to be a typo.
