[edit] Reviews

I've reviewed two of Brian Morris' books, but following Wiki policy I'm not including links to those (someone less partial can judge whether they're useful enough to warrant that). -- Danny Yee 07:59, 9 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] notability

The proposed academic requirement for notability is The person has published a well-known or high quality academic work. Morris certainly meets that requirement, with half a dozen books published with high profile publishers.

Also, Published authors, editors, and photographers who have written books with an audience of 5,000 or more or in periodicals with a circulation of 5,000 or more. My university library holds most of Morris' works and I believe Anthropological Studies of Religion was a set text at one point, so I think his worldwide readership must be well over 5,000. -- Danny Yee 08:33, 9 April 2006 (UTC)
