Is this book notable? I couldn't find any reviews or such except that InfoWorld run three excerpts from the book, and in the first one seems to be accompanied by a review (see p.58-60). Is a single review sufficient to establish the book's notability? Can anyone find something more? If we can find even one more, I'd be happy to withdraw this nom. _{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 08:28, 11 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

• Comment This book has its own section in the Adam Osborne article, pretty much the same content. If no more sources about this book are found, redirect could be an ideal outcome. Note I would prefer redirect in any case, as I doubt anyone will expand this article above content yet in the Adam Osborne article, and this book has some basic notability (eg. InfoWorld coverage).

• Soft delete and redirect. The book is not notable and no reviews. Lorstaking (talk) 04:04, 29 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
• Merge and redirect: I agree with Lorstaking, the book is not very meet-able to WP:NB which I have commented at above in previously. It shall be redirected to Adam Osborne, and John C. Dvorak as well at the book section. SA 13 Bro (talk) 10:42, 31 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
