Brief summary so you avoid wasting your time on this drivel like I just did.
Two academics married together when they were young. They bitterly separated some years later. She had a notable career, he did not. Now they are dead.
He wrote a book on a vacuous subject while they were together. She at least edited it. Another academic claims she actually wrote it. He has no proof but he dislikes the guy. Also, the book is good while the guy did nothing interesting thereafter. Except of course he did write another book which is at least as famous after they split but it doesn't count. Because.
By the way, there is one inconsequential paragraph in the whole book which is improperly attributed. There is a reference to the original author but it's only on a quotation while the paragraph is lifted with slight alterations. Squinting hard enough you might call it plagiarism. Actually she has been accused of plagiarism for an entirely different work decades later. Does it mean something ? Probably not but the article writer is paid by word.
You're welcome.
