BOOK(S) UPDATE
1. The main book was too large, so I broke it into multiple books. The first of which was reforming libertarianism. The main book is still around 800 pages, and I expect will stay in that range even after I cut everything possible. Whether I break out the New Constitution into a separate book is still an open question. I am still of the mind to put the constitution in the middle of a book containing the ‘mythology’.
2. There is a lot of overlap between the books. The libertarianism book is targeted to libertarians, and includes the misesian and rothbardian arguments. Other readers will not benefit from that information, so the main book only touches on it.
3. I have a 95% first draft of this book on reforming Libertarianism: Liberty into Sovereignty. There are bits here and there I need to work on – particularly the very beginning (which i write last). And of course there is the usual editorial work (flow). Undone places are marked ‘undone’. I will continue working through them until complete.
4. If you haven’t worked on books like this before, it usually takes three or more iterations to get it to ‘done’. So there is quite a bit editing for content, flow, and the usual trivialities of consistency, spelling and grammar.
5. Some of you will find the progress interesting, some will want to read it, and some may want to help by providing comments.
