Excellent use of social media for the project my friend, Crystal would be most impressed!
Was talking to my publisher friend. He doesn't do books but he does say that the project appears to be viable. He suggests do the research, choose a writing style (academic vs entertaining), write it up, get some media interest first (Ray D'Arcy show or the like) and then approach a book publisher who will provide an editor etc and market the book. Get all publishers to sign a confidentiality agreement before they look at what we have and then do a deal with them.
