This edition is based on a series of layout choices adapted to the document's use: the metal spiral binding allows it to lie perfectly flat, facilitating collective work, while shorter dividers help to easily locate the different chapters and mark content variations.

A thick grey cardboard at the back of the edition provides a sturdy surface for taking notes while standing, eliminating the need for additional support.
