and they bowed to pub;ic opinion and pulled the book. it's done, it's over

You won't be saying. "Oh yes, the book had nothing to do with this and I will defend Amazon's right to sell it." That's not going to happen. You'd be right there demanding Amazon take it down.
that's a stretch and you should know it. reading a book about pedophilia is not going to create those tendencies. if someone is already inclined that way, they have probably already acted on it. pedophilia apparently has the highest recidivism rate of all of the criminal acts. if the repeat levels are that high, one can only imagine what the initial ventures into the act are.

just because I have read a book detailing lesbian lifestyles does not make me wish to embrace the same lifestyle
