A complete draft table of contents for the Third Edition of The Work-Standard finally has been compiled. The current titles of the Entries below may be subject to change in keeping with the necessary improvements. I am posting the draft here to make it easier for me to complete the new webpage for this Treatise. The old webpage is slated to be scrapped once the new one has been finished. Any new Entries not found in the Third Edition will be marked. With the obvious exception of Sections Eight, Nine and Ten, expect various Entries in the preceding Sections to be heavily revised and others given the usual edits.
