Thank you for these amazing comments and insight! One element I might not have emphasized as much in the linked piece is just how much of "team" you accidentally assemble. I project managed this for Marcin, but he hired other folks (proofreader and indexer) and commissioned some photography and 3D illustration. But beyond that, likely 100 people across our printer, the outside bindery (which did the hardcover binding), and the slipcase maker (an intensely handmade product as much as flawless as it might seem) were involved in bringing it to life. Then the many 1,000s or 10,000s of people who handled the books across the shipping process in the USPS and worldwide. Lots of people involved whenever you start working with pesky atoms.
