Volume 18. Overview & Autobiographical Essays
This volume of my assembled texts provides an overview of the series of books in my eLibrary. These include my two doctoral dissertations and the five volumes reporting on my research published by commercial publishers: MIT Press, Springer, Morgan & Claypool Publishers, Cambridge University Press and Springer.
They also include fourteen additional volumes, which collect the best versions of my papers that were not included in the five published books. I self-published these as collections of essays in order to organize and make available my writings in convenient and accessible formats. The self-published volumes are available in PDF format for free from my website and available at cost in paperback versions; most are also available formatted for Kindle and iBook, etc. This volume also includes autobiographical materials to provide context for the essays within the timeline of my life, work and thinking.
