I had checked the site you mentioned. It seems that your link is to MIT Press (it is like the Oxford University Press - a Publishing House) and not the university. They will publish any book that has a potential for sale!
Your claim is like Indian Hindus claiming Mr. Srinavasa Ramanujan as their own when in fact the brahmin priests had refused to conduct his last rites as he had gone to UK and lost his "dharam" due to crossing the Seas!!!!!!

Uri Geller, the sleight-of-hand juggler of Israel, took the world by storm with his psychic feats of being spoons, key and nails, teleporting thousands of miles in seconds, taking photographs thru sealed lens capsk, reproducing drawings that have been sealed up in envelopes, entering a flying saucer, etc. The highest paid woman journalist of the world of her time, Barbera Walters, was responsible for televising to the world Uri Geller's so-called psychic feats! Then what you want me to think of the peer-reviewers you are referring to?

JGN - you mentioned that MIT press was like Oxford univeristy press?Are you aware that they are peer reviewed? How many proofs and books by eminent historians you need? Have you checked the Nature Magazine's article? Do you think MIT press and Nature magazine can bluff and get away as many do here in rediff?

Mr.balaord, you be happy with your beliefs. I have seen hundreds of so-called scholars writing superstitious articles and supporting fake god-man/god-woman, etc. Have you hard of Balavatsky, Annie Besant, Theosophical Scoeity, Uri Giller, etc? They were all supported by some such scholars!!!!!!!!!
