No, I have never heard of the book or the author. Is there a basic theme or topic that it covers that you could give us a little information about?

THEME or TOPIC: What significant discoveries into Mormon Origins have been researched, conducted and documented over the past thirty years and what are the issues that most Latter-day Saints remain unaware of?
Roz,
On the back cover of "An Insiders View of Mormon Origins", (ISBN 1-56085-157-0), here is the quoted overview of what the book is about:
"Over the past thirty years, an enormous amount of research has been
conducted into Mormon origins - Joseph Smith's early life, the Book of
Mormon, the prophet's visions, and the restoration of priesthood authority.
Longtime LDS educator Grant H. Palmer suggests that most Latter-day
Saints remain unaware of the significance of these discoveries, and he
gives a brief survey for anyone who has ever wanted to know more about
these issues."
