[ note: I've set followups to go to me personally. If you must post in reply, please trim the newsgroups line appropriately. ] In alt.books.reviews/misc.books.technical/alt.books.reviews Stephane.Barbey@di.epfl.ch (Stephane Barbey) writes (in response to an author written review): > I totally agree with Somesh Rao. If an author cannot find one single > person other than himself to write a dithyrambic review of his book > (geez, on last resort ask your mother :-)), then I do not feel like > buying it. Hmmmm, this looks like a good excuse to do some advertising of my own. If you have a book you want reviewed (yours or someone else's), I will write one if it's on a subject I'm interested in (check with me first) and you send me a copy of the book. I make no promises about reviews being favourable though! My interests are pretty eclectic, with a slight emphasis on the social sciences at the moment (hence the crosspost to soc.history and sci.anthropology). If you want to examine previous reviews of mine try finger 'books%danny@orthanc.cs.su.oz.au' and if you are interested in my qualifications try finger 'resume%danny@orthanc.cs.su.oz.au' (Pipe output through a paginator as both are around 150 lines). You can mail me if you don't have finger access. Danny Yee (danny@cs.su.oz.au)
