The last sentence of the second paragraph in the “What is Structured Concurrency?” text box on page 78 is confusing (highlighting added):

 Is that suppose to be:

Thanks for spotting this typo! There should definitely be a to before start.
As for whether it should be to start or to start on, I think both work. Let’s try this:

It fixes the mistake, but keeps the slightly more informal tone. Let me know if you still find the sentence confusing, though! If so, I’ll rethink.
