(Maybe the book doesn't really exist and it's a scam.)

Do you mean the phases of the moon? That's how it's usually depicted, and you'll find it in books from the last century, too. And those incorrect images are labeled "Myth."

You can't really call the text on a box of candy a .
And this isn't even a box of candy.
So you can file a complaint with for fraud.

Although fraud is Amazon's business model)))

Those two make me wonder what's wrong with the authors. Then there's Henry Miller, and he makes me wonder what's wrong with publishers to even consider publishing the stuff. So this is a question that's been floating around for a while.
