Sorry, but the actual image is actually 15x17 pixels. The rendered image size is not manipulated by the HTML or CSS.
I probably can't provide a direct link for it, as it's a book on Safari. If you have access to it, the book is "SQL and Relational Theory, 1st Edition". Just find a page with any of the little inline images like ">=" and such.
