Carrie,
When I look at the new books page, I see it as "and". That is how I found
those two examples today. I did not get them from John's list. Not on the
book information page, but on the page people see before they click on that
page.

Now I'm really confused. I don't see the word "and" anywhere in the metadata
for The Coral Reef. Its authors are Karen Zipkas <dot> Mark Norman. And if
you look on its book information page, you can find "Other books by Karen
Zipkas" and "Other books by Mark Norman", meaning that the system thinks
that they are two separate authors.
I may have solved the mystery. I just copied the author field over to this
email, and it was copied as "Karen Zipkas and Mark Norman" even though on
the screen it's Karen Zipkas <dot> Mark Norman. Maybe whenever the system
sees the <dot> between author names, it says "and" instead. Has it always
done this, or is this saying "and" new?
In any event, the system is not concatenating two author names as one, which
was my main concern.

Hi Carrie,
Two of them are The Coral Reef, and The Grand Inquisitor. There are more, I
know. But I found these two in the second hundred books.
