Summary: A request from the author for a balanced review
Review: One of the guidelines of Amazon.com for reviews is that the reviews are not supposed to be spiteful. It was my impression that when one had a book review to do whether for college or whatever, the reviewer had an obligation to read the entire book and then give his or her objective summary. This book was put on the recommended list of books to read for 2002 by Marvin Olasky, editor of World magazine in the Nov. 30, 2002 edition on page 36. Mr. Olasky's article "70 mph Treadmill" shows how Mr. Olasky does his reviews- he reads the books that he reviews while he runs on his treadmill. Mr. Olasky is a very busy man, yet he took the time to read the book. The reviewer of my book on Amazon.com admits that he has not finished the book. "I didn't get very far into the book before deciding to return it." What kind of a grade would this student get from the teacher? I ask that this anonymous reader's review be removed or at least that my book is given equal time from a positive review. The book was in 7th place among books on Lawyers and Judges before this "deadly dull" review and has since fallen to 42nd place. I appeal to your staff to include reviews that follow your guidelines and I appeal to readers to have an open mind about the details of the book.
