I'll offer you a trade: an extensive and in-depth analysis of your book in return for an equivalent analysis of my book.
Quick note: I think explicit metadiscourse like "In Chapter 7 I argue that..." is ugly. Instead, try to fold those kinds of organizational notes into the flow of the text or argument. So write something like "But C.E.V. has some potential problems, as noted in Chapter 7, such as..." Or just throw away metadiscourse altogether.
What is your book?
It's about the philosophy of science, machine learning, computer vision, computational linguistics, and (indirectly) artificial intelligence. It should be interesting/relevant to you, even if you don't buy the argument.
Sorry, outside my expertise. In this book I'm staying away from technical implementation problems and sticking close to meta-ethics.
