Foundational texts

The inquiry proceeds in this order:

  1. Telos — the opening treatise.
  2. The Book of Observations — Volume I.
  3. Constitutional Axioms — Volume III.
  4. Constitution — Volume IV, Canonical Version 1.0.

The source editions identify their canonical status. The introductory pages and public essays help readers approach the work; they do not amend those texts.
