Classical Internal Ballistics - for the digital age

I am writing a book on internal ballistics which I hope will be published early 2025. I am going through a revising/editing process now, so this should be a realistic timeline. Below is a list of the proposed book chapters.
Chapter One - Book Review
Chapter Two - Units and Dimensions
Chapter Three - The Thermodynamics of Guns
Chapter Four - How Propellants Burn
Chapter Five - Shot Start Pressure
Chapter Six - Barrel Friction
Chapter Seven - Heat Loss and Erosion
Chapter Eight - Pressure Gradients
Chapter Nine - Analytic Systems
Chapter Ten - Numerical Systems
Chapter Eleven - Air Guns
Appendix One - Numerical Methods
Appendix Two - Reynolds Analogy
Appendix Three - Heat diffusion
Appendix Four - Vivacities for some Commercial Small-Arms Powders
Appendix Five - Adiabatic Pressure Gradient
