A longstanding article on a book of unclear notability. The references are routine and basically primary; the Image Management interview also describes the author as "CEO of the Comniscient Group (which includes Blue Lotus Communications, Trust Research Advisory, and Blue Bytes News)", which indicates this was an in-house publication. Since the article was created, on a couple of occasions it has attracted additions describing the field in general, rather than this particular book. Searches also find this brief at-launch item, but I am not seeing the level of coverage needed to demonstrate that the book achieved notability in its own right.

Delete Plenty of hits in Gscholar on the phrase used as the title, nothing about this particular book. I don't see any book review for this either. Oaktree b (talk) 02:02, 18 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
