For her piece of mind, she might want to consider some form of watermarking. That will not inconvenience legitimate users, and will allow her to spot illegal copies if she ever comes across one. Which, if her prediction of low interest proves true, is highly unlikely.

Just reassure her this way (all true): the most-highly pirated "books" are, in order: 1) copies of Game-cheat books (various); 2) copies of Playboy; 3) copies of Excel Macro books.
If her book doesn't really fall into the "teenage-boy-wants-it-but-doesn't-want-to-pay-for-it" category, she's reasonably, although not perfectly, safe.
Hope that helps.
