• Has potential for a merge, so Selective Merge to Jon Levy (behaviorist); a functional WP:ATD that would improve the suggested merge target article. North America¹⁰⁰⁰ 01:45, 13 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
• Comment. No storng feelings eitherway here except that the book has been mentioned in some decent quality tier 2 (maybe tier 4 in one case) sources Fortune, Observer, Times of Israel, New York Post, and Vogue. Certainly no New York Times or Washington Post type references, but these are still popular widely-read sources. Would a casual reader expect to see an article on the book in WP having read about it in these sources. Probably yes in my view. Britishfinance (talk) 20:46, 13 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

• I too have no strong feelings here, but in the interest of trying to obtain consensus, I'll agree to the merge mentioned above. The book does not achieve notability under WP:BK but there is an argument that it meets WP:GNG. Still, in the absence of sourcing evaluating the book as a book, the author's page is the best place for it. Xymmax ^{So let it be written} _{So let it be done} 18:14, 28 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
• Merge with Jon Levy (behaviorist) per Xymmax suggestion. Beefs up Levy's article (e.g. one good WP article is better than two minor ones). Britishfinance (talk) 20:22, 28 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
