355:- this is quite a famous book, though I'm not sure why the material can't be merged into the article on its author. We don't have an article on every famous book any more than we need an article on every CD. Often it is enough to discuss them in the article for the creator of the work. Still, this one is well enough known that I don't object to it being kept.

This book is the subject of multiple non-trivial published sources, and yes, NationStates is fun! (not that it's worth mentioning here, I just felt I had to say it¬) --
309:, there is no mention of a game making a book notable. As I said up in my other comment, I will withdraw this nomination if someone re-writes it to include new sources.
