What about the title?
Reader comment on item: The Most Amazing Book Editing Error?

Submitted by jennifer solis (United States), Oct 23, 2007 at 15:52

Do they give credit to Daniel Pipes for the title? "Islamism", as far as I know, was most likely coined by Dr. Pipes. He has used the term as far back as 1998 -

http://www.danielpipes.org/article/954

The article is titled, "Distinguishing between Islam and Islamism", June 30, 1998.

Out of curiosity, I wonder how closely aligned the book is with Dr. Pipes' writtings on Islamism. Something tells me, not very. If I saw it on a store shelf, I'd buy it - it's probably comical.
