Abstract: It is the usual policy of Inderscience to retract from publication any paper if, subsequent to publication, it becomes a matter of dispute about intellectual property, publishing ethics or legal issues. Each case is judged on individual circumstances. In this case, the authors have requested withdrawal of their paper since it has a number of similarities with another paper by them. The IJCM paper has therefore been retracted.
