Annals of Academic Pettiness

MOVING TO FRONT FROM APRIL 19:  SEE UPDATE

This really takes the prize.  I do find it hard to believe that anyone gives any credence to (or could care about) anonymous Amazon reviews of scholarly books.

(Thanks to David Fraser for the pointer.)

UPDATE:  As several readers have pointed out, this saga has now gotten even more pathetic.  It really does look like a mental health issue at this point.  A shame.

AND STILL MORE SORDID details here.  The case is also yet more evidence of the pathologies of English libel law.
