It could even be as I suggested earlier: all these 1-star reviews have drawn attention to the book, so it sells more and those that actually do like it feel obliged to offer their review. I wondered if Amazon may be leaving things as they because it was a benefit to them. That's one of the difficulties of protests made from a position of ignorance, you never quite know when your protests are having the opposite effect to the one you wanted.
