Decade Representation
This book utilizes the 0-9 decade format (1960-1969) for chronological references rather than the 1-10 format (1961-1970). This decision was made to simplify and standardize the representation of decades in a concise manner. While the 1-10 format may be more common in certain contexts, adopting the 0-9 format allows for clearer and unambiguous identification of each decade, minimizing potential confusion.
