The plural of “index” is “indices”

I couldn’t take this book seriously because of this grammar error. Over and over, “indexes” was used to refer to more than one “index”. “Indexes” is a verb. If that oversight was included dozens of times, what else is incorrect? Also, the details in the first several chapters are out-dated. This book should be updated or considered obsolete and passed over for other investing tutorials.
