In the spirit of being more specific, could you please list all the chapters in the order they will have in the book?
I am not sure if some chapters don’t appear in more than one sequence. The linear ordering could be used to check whether a sooner chapter does not hyperlink to a later chapter; which should be avoided, if possible. Also on wiki some chapters are written in bold font, and some in plain font; does it mean the first ones will be somehow emphasised in the book?
To avoid unbalanced hierarchy, perhaps the sequence “How To Actually Change Your Mind” (the one that contains many subsequences) should not be mentioned in the table of contents; use just the subsequences. Alternatively, divide the book into three parts—the second part is “How to Actually Change Your Mind” and we need some names for the first and the third parts. Also if the specific chapters are listed, we will see how balanced are the parts of the book.
In wiki we have these pages with short descriptions of the posts in the sequences. There should be something similar in the book. Especially… I am already imagining a paper version… on paper there are no hyperlinks and search, so it would be good to have a tool to help you find the chapter you want to see. Also, to be reminded quickly about the ideas in the book.

The chapters are all the posts listed on the wiki under the various sequences.
There are a few overlapping chapters, which will be removed.
Something similar—summary/notes of an entire sequence, not for every single post—will exist at the beginning of the ebook.
A paper version is not planned (our current template puts the entire sequences at a 2,400 pages).
