Equalizing volume between different segments of a recording

When different segments of a recording have different average volumes, what’s the best way to edit and equalize them in Audacity? Just amplify each segment by eye?

By eye, or you can use the ReplayGain plugin.
Instructions for installing and using it are on this page: https://wiki.librivox.org/index.php?title=Measuring_Volume_within_Audacity

Provided everything is on a single track, which it should be, this is the best thing to use:
