Look more closely.
It says d5 in column 5, and the Nbd7 move belongs in column 6.
The typesetter just left out a <Tab> character.
Two typos, no big deal. There are many more and much more serious mistakes.
"Show me three variations in the leading handbook on the openings, and I will show you two of those three that are defective." - Lasker
is still true today.
On the 5th variation, isn't 6. ...Nbd7 an illegal move? If so, what's the correct line?
