In a perfect world, we would like to keep all of BookBrowse's biographies up to date, but with many thousands of lives to keep track of it's simply impossible to do.

If you are the author or publisher and would like us to update this biography, send the complete text and we will replace the old with the new.
A few books well chosen, and well made use of, will be more profitable than a great confused Alexandrian library.
