Non-notable book; does not satisfy Wikipedia:Notability (books). ZimZalaBim talk 22:17, 14 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- This AfD nomination was incomplete. It is listed now. DumbBOT (talk) 12:08, 16 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep. Book written by Alvin Toffler, a highly noteable author, at least to those of us of a certain age. The author of Future Shock and The Third Wave is likely "so historically significant that any of his or her written works may be considered notable," and as such this falls within one of the book notability guideline's keep rules. - Smerdis of Tlön (talk) 14:24, 16 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment which certain age would that be ? I've never heard of him :-) CultureDrone (talk) 15:27, 16 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Future Shock appeared in 1970. Just about everybody I went to college with was reading it at the time. - Smerdis of Tlön (talk) 15:33, 16 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

- Strong keep. Google News comes up with extensive coverage including reviews in The New York Times, The Washington Post, People's Daily, The Hindu, The Korea Times, International Herald Tribune, Hindustan Times etc. Looks pretty notable to me. Phil Bridger (talk) 13:35, 18 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
