Delete. Blatant self-promotion by the author and her husband, S. Kosslyn, who created the page. Claims are unsourced. Authorship alone does not meet Wikipedia's notability criteria. Dr.Who (talk) 07:00, 20 July 2012 (UTC)

 * I'm not adept at researching citations but my G Scholar search to see if her work has been cited yields poor results (I think). She's sure to be in the news because of the Batman shooting, and I suspect that's why Dr. Who happened across this almost two-year old article. If one can establish that she is an expert in the field of superhero psychology, I suppose you've got a claim for WP:AUTHOR, but the popular press has not been beating down her door to interview her, to date. Now that may change, perhaps. Shawn in Montreal (talk) 21:26, 20 July 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete promotion by subject and/or spouse. Fails WP:AUTHOR and Notability (academics) and fails on the G Scholar search. The article and Amazon show that the subject edited the popular culture books, did not actually write them except for the self-published one. MMMMMMMM (talk) 07:16, 21 July 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete. Blatant WP:ADVERT.  Fails WP:AUTHOR and WP:BOOK. Qworty (talk) 09:35, 24 July 2012 (UTC)
