Section 15.3 discusses <mesons>; section 15.5.2, printed p. 19, explains that adding the <charm quark> gives flavour $SU(4)$, which is strongly broken by the large <charm quark> <mass> but remains useful for classification. This supports distinguishing an approximate flavour symmetry from the existence of a four-flavour <quark model>.
