I removed the speedy since there is a claim for notability (published author) that made an A7 inappropriate. However, a single book with an Amazon sales rank of 3,341,281, here, doesn't speak of much notability either. Further there is a current failure of WP:RS. Delete. TerriersFan 23:48, 17 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete I was the one who placed the original speedy.  The research sounds interesting, but there's little if anything to indicate the notability of the researcher. -- Finngall   talk  00:40, 18 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete The article is not so much about her, but about a thesis. It's original research. Yechiel Man  01:18, 18 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Comment It's a very bad idea to judge academic books by Amazon sales rank. Only a very tiny fraction of such books sell lots of copies.  More important is academic recognition via citations etc.  I found four citations in other academic books, which probably indicates that the journal literature has many more.  --Zerotalk 07:19, 20 May 2007 (UTC)
