Well, that just means they don't think it will make them enough money to offset possible hassle. Having abandoned a half-written book ten years ago, if I'd finished it but had no success with publishers I'd be thinking of electronic publishing by now. Never mind the peanuts, feel the satisfaction!
I'm sure regulars here would treat an electronic review copy in confidence.
Anyway, good luck if you decide to go ahead.

Ray, do you think wife beating is objectively wrong (ie under any circumstance)?
If you do, how do you reconcile your view with what Quran and ahadith say?

Wife beating. It happens everywhere, even in secular nations.

In America and Europe, domestic abuse and voilence against women is reported to be greater than in any muslim country.

Atheists, even cops are known to beat their wives and girlfrinds.
