 * Delete. Fails notability criteria for books and appears to be a part of Koenraad Elst spam. Salih  ( talk ) 18:09, 7 April 2014 (UTC)
 * Comment. I am unsure.  It exists, but it looks to be NN. Bearian (talk) 19:00, 7 April 2014 (UTC)
 * Keep. The book is based on parts of Elsts Ph.D. thesis. It is cited in many books and papers and is one of Elst's important works. --Calypsomusic (talk) 16:35, 11 April 2014 (UTC)
 * The first point is not a valid reason for keeping the article, and the second point is not proven. Please cite reliable sources. Drmies (talk) 17:44, 11 April 2014 (UTC)
 * Delete as non notable book. - →Davey 2010→ →Talk to me!→  23:08, 11 April 2014 (UTC)


 * Agreed with Bali88. This book has been used as reference by thousands of writers. However, all of them only establishes notability for Elst. Not really for this book. Once it will achieve enough notability, article can be re-created. D4iNa4 (talk) 14:11, 12 April 2014 (UTC)
