My understanding is that the handbooks at drupal.org, including the example http://drupal.org/getting-started/before, are implemented via the books module. The book module is part of core Drupal and its purpose is listed as "Allows users to structure site pages in a hierarchy or outline."
John,
I read that, but being new to the concepts I wanted to be clear on what the words mean within Drupal.
So to answer your question, the example is a book page because the management of the links between the pages and the embedding of those links into the pages is handled by the books module.
That makes it perfectly clear.
When we create content of type 'book page' we are asking the book module to manage the links for us.
And this makes it even more clear.
Thank you very much,
Rich
