- Keep. I did a bit of searching and found several reviews. I also see where the book is extensively used as a source and quoted in some academic/scholarly work ([1], [2]) and is a recommended read for at least one college course. It's light, but it's enough to help show notability. I have a very, very strong suspicion that there is more out there, just that it'll take a while to find since the book was published before the Internet was really a thing.
