These are books I've authored or edited.

Unlike print books, they are digital, searchable, interactive, and web accessible. I write them on Bookish.press, a platform I created to write simple, beautiful, accessible web-based books. The books are also living documents: I update them regularly with new ideas, citations, and chapters, especially in response to feedback.
