Cool idea - few questions: How many volumes are there? Would be cool to see the full list. The first to volumes are very goal purpose driven and so fit will together. The third feels very grab bag and likely should be split up more. You'll also likely want to cover on schools of thought, the scientific method and whatnot. An alternate volume 3a might be on mass production of food (enabling greater human capital). Large scale agriculture and the chemistry and botany that enables it. Some amount of animal farming is likely required. 3b could cover the communication and transportation networks necessary to distribute that food. Both the engineering, infrastructure and tech behind it. At some point you can shift to covering, manufacturing and mass production - which enables all the small products needed for so many fields. The handles, washers, lenses,... Then final shift to digital and everything that rolls out from there.
