This is "the book." I will be posting the various chapters of The Emperor's Teacher first on the main blog (Round and Square) and then on the "book blog" (here). If you want to read the book as it is taking shape, here is the place to do so. The chapters are "in order," and you will see the way the argument begins to take shape. Although it is subject to change somewhat in the creation process, I envision the following structure for the overall book (see below). I will post a chapter a month during 2011.
I'll have more to say about the title soon.
