This is wrong. The correct statement should read:
This method iterates over a collection that contains
*the receiver class* and all its subclasses.

This is also carelessly written, a better wording is:
To iterate over that collection of subclasses, we
have to use 'allSubclassesDo:'
My apologies for the bad wording. Note that
the poposed fixed that I posted earlier
is nevertheless worth being examined.
Greetings again, Boris
