-\chapter{Standard Modules}
-
-The modules described in this chapter are implemented in Python, but
-are considered to be a part of Python's standard environment: they are
-always available.\footnote{at least in theory --- it is possible to
-botch the library installation or to sabotage the module search path
-so that these modules cannot be found.}
