Koenraad (koenraadkelemen) | 6993 comments I recently came across this book, which was combined with 'What she wants' by Cathy Kelly. An internet search of the ISBN only came up with the latter, and the change log indicates that this was also the original title before isbndb changed it in january 2012. Moreover, I cound not find any trace of a collaboration between Cathy Kelly and Rosemary Tripi Wong, in fact, the only book I found that I could associate with Rosemary Tripi Wong is this one: The First Days of School: How to Be an Effective Teacher With CDROM .
So normally I would consider this mixup by isbndb and undo the title change. However, after separating, it shows the book was shelved 7 times before the name change, and 17 times since then, so I'm not sure what is the best way to proceed now? Could a super please have a look and advise? (I've left the edition uncombined for now).

Banjomike | 5166 comments Going by the book number & reviews, the book was called 'What she wants' by Cathy Kelly for about four years before it was renamed. The renaming was most likely wrong. I would put it back to 'What she wants'. Only one person has shelved that book as "education" so hopefully only that one will be upset.

Edith (lagraziana) | 76 comments I just noticed that one of the books in my read shelf shows with the ISBN instead of the title! Could anyone change this please! It seems that I can't do it myself - I didn't add the book anyways.

The ISBN is: 978-3423141543
The title should be: Der alte König in seinem Exil.

OK - I renamed it, removed co-author and recombined with the other editions.
Thank you for your help.
