Oh!  Very likely.  I loaned it out as soon as it had passed through my
ears, and so simply took it on faith that I had heard what you were
talking about.  After all, it had just recently appeared on the shelf,
and (I'm pretty sure) had a copyright date of 1990.  I was not
sufficiently moved to try to get it back before commenting.  Shame on
me!

Oh, well.  I will have to try to get hold of it.  Thanks for posting
this information.
