Keep - This is a huge book and made a big impact I'm still working on this article. Could use some help. futurebird (talk) 19:52, 4 January 2008 (UTC)
 * Keeping in mind the notability requirements at WP:BK, could you quote sources confirming the books notability please? Redfarmer (talk) 20:03, 4 January 2008 (UTC)
