Tentative News and Disappointing Sales

I posted at Bill Gates' Twitter account. I know there must usually be counter-measures or something. Some of my ideas seem high-profile to me, so I try to push them around.

Meanwhile, I haven't had a book sale since May 16th.

I'm looking for interested readers for my Dimensional Philosopher's Toolkit, 1-Page-Classics, and Creeping Cadence (three different books).

All available on Amazon.

Book Published

The Dimensional Philosopher's Toolkit has been published.

It is available on Amazon (Barnes and Noble soon):

http://www.amazon.com/Dimensional-Philosophers-Toolkit-Essential-Encyclopedia/dp/1481704575/

And at the publisher's website: http://bookstore.authorhouse.com/Products/SKU-000626241/The-Dimensional-Philosophers-Toolkit.aspx 

I have been promoting the book on Twitter to my distant philosophical acquiantances.

Definitely worth buying, in the context of systems and arguments. For example, the Macro, Meso, and Micro arguments for Free-Will might be worth the cover price.

The Dimensional Philosopher's Toolkit, or The Essential Criticism

BOOK DESCRIPTION

---Not a prolegomena, a foundation.---As an avant-garde artist and student of philosophy, Nathan Coppedge feels uniquely qualified to offer a radical manual suited to the new study of categorical philosophy termed dimensionism. Essentially and critically, this body of thought is a movement beyond several major prior vanguards in philosophical history and critique, including the precepts of Immanuel Kant, the process philosophy of Alfred North Whitehead, and the atomical knowledge forms of Ludwig Wittgenstein. It is through an especially coherent and exclusive theory that Coppedge’s work remains theoretically grounded. This work is an encyclopedia of new thought, offering a complex vantage point on voluminous quantities of insights.

I have been attracting philosophers

To my Twitter profile twitter.com/nathancoppedge

I hope some of them buy my book next year.

I have developed a list of all the philosophers and philosophy students that I have attracted to my Twitter profile. It's a significant percentage of them. Here is the link to the list.

My forthcoming book, The Dimensional Philosopher's Toolkit focuses on coherent typologies, and argues a number of positions, such as a revision of truth predicates and a more fundamental view of mathematics. Most of the book is devoted to establishing significant coherent methods with diagrams, using polarized opposites in a manner that strikes me as original and authentic.

Cover for the DPT

This is probably how the cover for the Dimensional Philosopher's Toolkit will appear, for those that plan on purchasing the book. It will be available at Barnes & Noble and Amazon sometime around February or March of next year.

Intent to publish The Dimensional Philosopher's Toolkit

The book follows up unofficially on the work of Peter S. Fosl and Julian Baggini, by making great strides into the field of categorical and typological knowledge systems; The book is scheduled for release in early 2013, by Authorhouse.

The forms of knowledge present in the book make great strides beyond what I thought to be a rarified coherent system based on God and objects, which I wrote into my web publication, the Unity Project, a number of years ago.

Categorical knowledge will be a recurrent theme in future book projects, including a work I have already begun called How to Write Aphorisms: The Aphoristic Method. While this work may not be as initially popular as the 1-Page-Classics or the Dimensional Philosopher's Toolkit, it seems possible that gradually the small numbers of sales from the entire collection will be mutually supportive, and determine that I have a minimum influence, if not upon future scholars, then at least upon a small sampling of students and "fringe thinkers". However, finding a means to advertise without paying a hefty sum has been difficult beyond belief.

Coppedge's Law of Iteration

I've been promoting my idea of Coppedge's Law of Iteration on the web (Google+ Intel and Twitter.com).

"Qualia computation increases in proportion to exclusivity"

Compare Boyd's law: "The value of information increases in proportion to the number of iterations, not the quality of the iterations"

More about methods to be used with iteration and exclusivity in my upcoming book, The Dimensional Philosopher's Toolkit.
