It would also be nice if it said whether "Sequential Consistency" and "Serializability" are the same thing.

Yeah, it's left a bit unexplained - if I we're rewriting the book today, I'd bring this particular section on the kinds of "strong" consistency models to be more in line with what Peter Bailis wrote recently http://www.bailis.org/blog/linearizability-versus-serializability/ also http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sequential_consistency
I didn't quite want to bring in serializability vs. linearizability topic in yet at that point since serializability is a transactional DB related concept and much of what I write doesn't involve that stuff, but I'll try to revisit this section next time I'm updating the book so that it is a bit more clear.
