I have received a review copy of Judy Glattstein's new book, "Bulbs for Garden Habitats" (Timber Press, 2005). The author is a garden journalist rather than bulb specialist (her particular interest is Hosta) and contacted me, and no doubt others, early in the writing of the book for information. Since I write under other people's names only when I'm paid to do so, I didn't respond in much detail, citing lack of time. Nonetheless, I find that the book contains numerous statements and even direct quotes, attributed to me by name, taken from my postings on this PBS forum and from my published writing, without my express permission. The book has no bibliography and the Acknowledgments don't mention PBS. The PBS is, however, among the organizations listed in the Sources section in the back matter -- with the now outdated website address. Other active members of this forum are also quoted at length. I recognize some of the statements from the PBS forum archive. I would be interested to know the extent to which the author obtained permission to quote the archive and other material from our correspondents.
