Scan of page 41 in Wojtaszczyk, containing a proof of the Principle of Small Perturbations showing that a small enough perturbation of a basis yields a basis again (and not just a basic sequence).
Scan of the proof of Corollary 5.7 in Carother's book as given on page 53 in the first book by Lindenstrauss and Tzafriri, as well as the pages containing their version and proof of the Principle of Small Perturbation (which is used): page 53, page 5, page 6.
