"But it's an issue all attempts to redress an inequality by means of affirmative action face isn't it?"
Are you saying that a minority can't pass a Turing type test, and therfore needs special consideration?
" more a question of not being recognized in an industry dominated by white men."
I agree that there has been unjust descrimination in the past from publishers. How can this be corrected by affirmative action? I care how well a book is written on a subject that interests me. The fact that the author could be a minority is of no concern to me at all. The first few pages will tell me all I want to know.
