Without a people
Hello, welcome to Wikipedia. It is not forbidden to write about your own work on Wikipedia, but you should be aware of the guidelines at Conflict of interest. You went too far when you named your book in the article without citing it; you can't do that. You also added a quotation from Shaftesbury that is already present and stated an opinion that is already stated. The only thing remaining is to mention you as a notable supporter of that opinion, which is what I reduced your contribution to.

I must admit you succeeded a little: I am very interested in that subject and ordered a copy of your book. Crime pays sometimes.
