Journals pose a particular problem as they are often, as in the case of
the three journal articles in this case, behind pay walls. Those are peer
reviewed, while his book by a commercial publisher has not received
academic reviews.
Someone did send me a copy of one of the academic journal articles. But I
have yet to see the other two which cost quite a bit.
