Coverage & research gaps (4)

Coverage measures the evidence recorded here. It does not rate the product.

  • Identity: 3 / 3 · Name, brand and classification recorded
  • Book details: 6 / 6 · Profile fields recorded: authors, publisher, language, binding, pages, published. Missing fields may require research or an applicability note.
  • Context: 1 / 1 · Evidence groups assigned to a researched label, edition or analysis
  • Label photographs: 0 / 1 · Researched contexts with an assigned photograph
  • identity · unknown: No cover photo was read: the imprint is New Riders per Open Library and the 2009 Barcodepedia page, while the publisher's store and AbeBooks name Peachpit Press.
  • relationships · unknown: The printer is not named in any source read, and no source names the registrant of the ISBN publisher prefix 0-321, so no gs1_prefix_owner edge is given.
  • images · not_researched: Open Library holds cover 193530, but no licence for reuse was found, so no picture is attached.
  • images · not_researched: No product photographs recorded.
