In Part 2, <i>Arguing Protocols, </i>we introduce a variety of analytical and conceptual frameworks designed to help you think about protocols. In Part 3, <i>World Engines, </i>we have a set of application-oriented essays from a variety of domains that aim to build your basic “protocol muscles,” and intuitions, enabling you to make decisions and choose behaviors with a literate awareness.</p> <p>Finally, in Part 4, <i>Living With Protocols, </i>we have a set of wide-angle essays that offer broad views of the world through protocol-tinted glasses, and two speculative fiction pieces that attempt to envision protocolized futures.</p>
