- BookBits Protect Its: A Children's Book
A picture book carrying the corpus's central thesis—Bits Protect Its—down to first principles a child can follow. It traces the hundred-year chain of discovery from Maxwell's demon through Shannon, Landauer, Bennett, and Wheeler to a single claim: knowing is cheaper than forcing, by law. And it introduces Jed's Angel, the planetary-scale defender that watches, thinks, and gently nudges the living world toward life.
- BookListening
A children's picture book adapting 'Bits Protect Its.' Book Two in the series that began with 'We Are Why It Might.' Walks young readers through the gap between how fast nature speaks and how slowly human law and attention have answered—then through the satellites, sensors, and learning machines that are finally closing it in their lifetime. The wager: this generation will be the first in four billion years to hear the planet almost as fast as it speaks.
- BookWe Are Why It Might
A children's picture book adapting 'A Planet Without Minds Is a Planet Already Condemned.' Walks young readers from the four-billion-year arc of life on Earth, through five mass extinctions and the asteroid that ended the dinosaurs, to NASA's DART mission—the first time a human-made object measurably moved an asteroid in space. The wager: we are the first part of nature ever able to ask why and use the answer to defend the rest.
- BookA Victorious Defeat
A decade of journal entries, observations, and reform proposals from inside the practice of Clean Air Act law. The case for simplifying a system whose overlapping rules now benefit lawyers more than air quality, and whose 1970s assumptions about pollution as a local problem no longer match a small, multi-pollutant world.
