*****GK: Good question. I look forward to a perusal of
the upcoming expanded English language version. Note
that one Italian review of the German text
[Mesopotamia, Firenze, vol. XXXVI (2001): pp. 134-136
Journal of Universit�� di Torino:
(A.M. Jasink)], while doubting the main thesis of
Derakshani, suggests nevertheless that "the volume has
its usefulness suitable for the viewpoint within which
it moves", and that "the data gathered by him can
serve for further investigations even if with
different solutions."******
