 * This article is written by someone with a poor command of idiomatic English (may have been a native Dutch speaker?). If I find time I'll look at it Chrismorey (talk) 04:21, 17 September 2014 (UTC). Later - I've done up to what the author calls "Stage 2" and have stopped because it is difficult to make sense of the material - at least without reading Jeal's book, which the author has clearly done, but failed to precis it into comprehensible English.


 * Later still - have edited to end & tried to make sense of it. Chrismorey (talk) 00:39, 18 September 2014 (UTC)
