Of course it is unethical for someone NOT to recuse him/her self on a book with which he/she was involved. Some years ago, a member of the judging NBA committee for youth books walked out because a member pushed and pushed and pushed for a book with which he was involved (something about refrigerators and parrots). I wonder if such people work for Enron?
One, if one is ethical and decent, recuses him/her self on matters with which one has any involvement.
Thank you Jonathan. (And, as an aside, "Tiger" did not rise very high , unlike the author's first book which flew.)
