I wonder why does it start with volume 2?

I wonder why does it start with volume 2?

Answer from Kevin Moore:

Volume 1 is a placeholder for a book I haven't written. It will be an overview and history of the entire rhythm section, written for complete beginners. It will have the most basic patterns for every instrument: bass, piano, drums, timbales, congas, bongó, güiro, kick drum, clave and so on. There will be videos of various players. The idea is that someone who doesn't play the instruments would be able to play the simplest rhythm patterns for each one - good for listerners, dancers, players of other instruments, and arrangers.

I see ... well, the published and upcoming volumes are geared towards drumset and timbales.
But the volumes beyond 6 could be interesting if, for example, he does something like Tomas Cruz method for bongo.
