Dear Yossi,

It would be helpful if we could see a couple of scans. I'm not familiar
with the book in question, and would naturally be interested in seeing it.
Bob Talbott has clearly identified the author (IU. = Judah D(avidovitch)
Kukizow /Kokizow. There is a brief article about him in the EJB. I would
suggest forwarding the query to Dr. Barry Walfish and Dr. Mikhail Kizilov (
mikhail.kizilov at gmail.com). If you receive an answer, I'd be grateful for
the information.

Kol tuv,

Daniel
