Title: Is ANYONE paying attention at Columbia University Press?
Product review: Against the advice of all three previous reviewers, because (as they note) Motherwell is so important (to me, and generally) and because from other writings I believe that Caws's take is important to understanding his importance, I purchased a "like new" copy of this book. At first blush the book was tight, a lovely physical thing. Then, immediately after page xi in the Preface came page xxi. Quality control at Columbia University Press, from its editors down, must be in the bottom tier of shabbiness for university presses. Shame on them. Shame, shame. I have stopped reading and am fearful to continue for further omissions and horrors I will discover (as said previous commenters have warned).One wonders, too, if Mary Ann Caws was paying much attention to the production of her book? Or was she too eager to move on to the next . . .
Would you say this review depicts the product in a flattering or unflattering light?
