Apropos my comment here, what do you guys think of making The Simple Math of Everything a reality?
The LW community probably has a diverse enough group of scholars to cover most of the major fields, and if not, we all have contacts. Splitting it up into sections for different individuals to write would make the project much easier to complete, provided someone is coordinating everything. What do you guys think?
Agreed as well, I always thought this was a great idea.
An edited volume might be overly ambitious, but I think a wikibook could be a feasible.
Another way to test the waters is to write a top level post calling for suggestions on topics or format. If there's enough interest, put out a call for essays accompanied by a brief style guide.
We'll have to make sure to ask Kalid Azad to participate.
