Well no. Dirk suggested to me to recommend _a later edition_ of a book
that I have read many, many times. He did _not_ suggest me to
recommend a totally
unknown book. Nor did I suggest a book I did not read.

And it is really good. This is why I recommended it.
Because I _know_ it is good.

And just by reading the thread, it is pretty obvious that
this is what happened.
