HSG Book Structure

The Human Stewardship Guidelines are published as a three-book work. Every volume belongs to exactly one Book. Books are frozen at foundation; adding, moving, or renaming a Book is a constitutional change, recorded as a registry amendment.

• Volume I. Foundations of Human Stewardship

Invariants#

• A volume never migrates between Books.
• Volume status is owned by the registry, not the Book.
• Books are implementation-independent — no product or interface language may appear in Book titles, purposes, or volume titles.
