Hello Goodreads Librarians,I am writing to request a correction to the author attribution for the following book:
Title: The Organism Is a Theory: Giuseppe Longo on Biology, Mathematics, and AI
Goodreads Link: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...
The Correction Needed:
The current author display reads:
"by Giuseppe Longo"
This needs to be corrected to:
"by Adam Nocek (with Giuseppe Longo)"
The Reason For This Correction:
The book is primarily authored by Adam Nocek, who constructed the work as a dialogue based on his own initiative and wrote the long introduction. Giuseppe Longo appears in the title because the book also collects a number of his papers, but the primary authoring voice and intellectual architecture of the work belongs to Adam Nocek.
The current listing creates a misleading impression that Giuseppe Longo authored a book about himself, which is factually inaccurate and does not correctly represent either author's contribution to the work.
This correction has been confirmed and requested by Professor Giuseppe Longo himself.
Summary of Change Required:
Current DisplayCorrect Displayby Giuseppe Longoby Adam Nocek (with Giuseppe Longo)
I would be very grateful if a librarian could process this correction at their earliest convenience. Please let me know if any additional information is needed to complete this update.
Thank you very much for your time and assistance.
