Can't find any evidence online that this person exists. ISBNs do not match books by that name. Worldcat lists no such books under any ISBN, and Google Scholar hasn't heard of this "academic". Unreferenced, non-notable per WP:ACADEMIC. Probable WP:HOAX. MuffledThud (talk) 12:52, 9 November 2009 (UTC)

 * Delete. Almost certainly a hoax. I looked around and also found no evidence of existence of either the author or the books. Kinoq (talk) 13:10, 9 November 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete. Anyone who doubts that this is a hoax can search the Cambridge University Press catalogue (and someone should have a word with the CUP about their spelling). Phil Bridger (talk) 14:11, 9 November 2009 (UTC)
