I agree with that and I wavered about buying the book because of it. In the end, I decided to read it and was pleasantly surprised. It's a nice book. It helps explain, but perhaps not excuse, his self-promotion.

I've only seen his name whenever Ramanujan is discussed, like when something new about him is discovered.

What are some examples of his self-promotion?
