More along the lines that it isn't referenced much. Although recent publication, to be sure, the material in it has been about for a while.
I found it cogently argued and, as Boiy admits, not quite the "silver bullet". Several aspects make inordinate common sense and I suspect that Pat Wheatley (can't wait for his Demetrius bio) would, in large part, be in agreement.
The book should firmly put to rest - if it were needed - the idea that the campaign of Iran (Eumenes/Antigonus) took place over 316-15.
