And here I thought Arthur Dent was a character in Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy...... 
Good to see this available in print.

Adams claimed that the coincidence in the book titles was completely fortuitous, and that he had in fact never heard of the book. This was often repeated, but in fact Adams had seen an original seventeenth-century edition of the book less than a year before he wrote the first outline of the Hitchhiker's Guide.[1]
