Either use the Bulk Metadata Edit Search and Replace feature to extract the ISBN and Publisher values from the Title column and put them in the rightful columns. Or add the books again with a suitable template to do the same as they're added.

I'd probably take the second option, on the basis that IMO its better to learn how to do it at the beginning of the process, rather than fixing things later.
