Negative Positive
Title: caution
Review: If an author is descibed as being someone who 'lectures' for an institution, or even worse, societies, this doesn't mean they are a trained academic. This is, as it states in the preface, a dissertation submitted for a certificate of higher education. With Elliot Smith's work being reprinted by Duckworth at a highly affordable price one really doesn't need this book on the shelf.
