I understand what your saying, I just think that it is unfair to negatively effect the book as a whole (including the author) over something that is more the responsibility of the publishing house. If I'm looking for the top rated books in a category so that I can go borrow one from my library, all of those one star ratings will pull books that, otherwise may have been great reads for me, off of the list. That is especially important when people don't read the reviews but simply discount the book out of hand.

If Amazon is thinking they should institute a publishers rating system and let people make purchasing decisions on that.
