Thirded, it is definitely “LessWrong, the Book”, although it doesn’t do a lot of Bayes, or any QM, FAI, reductionism, or meanings of words.

Clearly it needs to be sold in a combo with Gary Drescher’s Good and Real.

  I’m reading ciphergoth’s LW ebook on my phone. It gets a bit dull around page 12,000 (of ~20,000 * ) where it’s only one side of EY’s debates on AI with Robin Hanson. But certainly good up to there.
