Obviously most of the people replying in this thread (and the myriad of similar threads) have no interest in taking one minute to do some research to track down what might have happened.

Well I am not assigning blame to anyone about the renaming of the book. I'm just saying that if Kobo knew it had been changed and posted that info. then it's the fault of the purchaser for not noting it. But that if Kobo knew it had been re-named and didn't make that clear somehow then the fault was theirs in not making it clear. Obviously the book seller can't control what the publisher/author does but they do have a responsibility (I think) to the customer in that they are selling a product and owe it to the buyer to make clear what is being sold. If I sell you a part for your computer it is my job not to misrepresent the part as being of use when in fact it's either outmoded or the circuit board in it is fried. Likewise you as the buyer need to know something about what you are buying to make sure it is compatible with your system.
