Fails WP:N. Google doesn't return much more than places to buy it, or read exerts. Leonard(Bloom) 23:18, 17 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep The book is still in print (Amazon offers it, as well as B&N, Alibris, etc.)  It was published via an academic press, so there is some intellectual merit to the book.  Google Scholar turns up many cites of this book in other academic works.  The author, Erich S. Gruen, is notable enough for his own Wikipedia article.  Thus, the book seems to fit WP:NB for inclusion. --Mr. Vernon (talk) 23:36, 17 August 2008 (UTC)

 * Keep The article needs expansion and has multiple issues but here is another reliable source to add to the Google Scholar hits provided by Mr. Vernon. Editing issues are not a reason for deletion if there are reliable sources that establish notability.
