What has happened to the 2009 draft
the draft of the book I hope I will finish soon.

I did finish the manuscript and I did submit it to a publisher, sometime in 2009.

Upon receiving a review of the manuscript, I decided to revise it substantively and ended up working on a "new book." Because of the methodological articulation and the improvement of the general experimental design (that we use) that have been made subsequent to the completion of the 2009 book manuscript, I am glad that I did not try to make minor changes to the manuscript for publication.

In the meantime, works have continued to be published which seem to me to have little, if any, concern about making progress on the basis of rigorous testability. Such work continues to use what falls FAR SHORT of a solid generalization -- which I now call a confirmed schematic asymmetry -- as an empirical basis of their proposals, and their citations among themselves continue, leading uninformed and uncritical readers the impression that something significant is really being addressed.
