Not if the book is published as, "Super Breakthrough by John Q Schemer, based on an article by Jane Scientist." And the article could be quoted selectively to support JQ Schemer's pet theories, when the original didn't support them at all.

But quoting from an article is allowed now. So what would be the difference?
