I have just started reading that book and I found many sentences that I have difficulties with understanding.  In the spirit of 'peer production' I am thinking about recording a list of such sentences here so that editors of the future version of the book could ease the readers work.  Would there be a value in such a list?

p18 "My own emphasis is on the
specific relative roles of market and nonmarket sectors, and how that change
anchors the radical decentralization that he too observes, as a matter of
sociological observation." (what change?)
p21 "given that I subject to similar criticism
rules styled by their proponents as “property”"
p29 "High-volume mechanical
presses and the telegraph combined with new business practices
to change newspapers from small-circulation local efforts into mass
media." (what is the predicate here?)
