I don't think you have to be rude, or nasty, like some of the posters here do, but a firm, polite "I'm sorry, but I am really involved in this book and don't want to be disturbed" is necessary.

If they take offense......you've done the best you could. Its on them, not you.
I agree. Being polite and non-aggressive the first time is usually sufficient but there is the occasional, insensitive twit that needs to receive a verbal slap in the face to wake them up when being polite doesn't work.
