Apparently they felt it was necessary to counteract Gill's shenanigans in their own way, by distributing free copies of my book to physicists capable of understanding my work.

I have an eBook version of the first edition. Can I claim an upgrade from the publisher?

No rush; I have the other copy to read. I sent an email to one of your gmail addresses but I guess you didn't get it. ???

According to (15) Lambda is a set of pairs of unit length quaternions Po, Qo satisfying some further constraints.
According to (23) however, Lambda is a set of pairs of elements eo, so, each belonging to R^3.
In order to determine Po and So from eo and so I need to further two specify elements n and v of R^3.
To say this a different way, if I tell you Po, Qo, eo and so then n and v are each uniquely determined.
So there is no way I can demand "for all n" in (22).
Later it is said that the *pair* of particles is represented by Qo.
However formulas (24) and (25) show that only eo is needed to determine measurement outcomes. This would seem to suggest that only Po is needed; Qo is redundant.
Later it is said that eo and so are independent and uniformly distributed over S^2, and etao = eta(z, so) is a uniform number in [0, pi].
Together with (24) and (25) we see that so and etao are superfluous. However this completely specified LHV model (ie: (24), (25) and the hidden variable eo specified to be uniformly distributed on S^2) does not generate the singlet correlations.

I would qualify that a "proper" experiment has never been done to test Bell. Sure there are simple experiments that appear to give Bell's theorem validation physically.
