About this material
The pack is a single file carrying, in a machine-friendly notation, a chapter-and-section map, a glossary index, the canonical propositions (with their hierarchy of certainty and falsification conditions), common misreadings with corrections, and a list of reference materials. Chapter summaries are at the level of a table of contents, not summaries of the text. An AI that can browse may also consult the English appendices and essays and the machine-readable companion bundle online.
