Probably more bad practice by that definition, though for me the two concepts are very similar. I think the original article aimed more at process and large scale patterns, where our book aims more at small scale patterns.

anti-pattern would be: "commonly reinvented bad solution to a recurring problem" (paraphrasing wikipedia)

Anti-patterns can be copied as well as reinvented. Also, some can manifest simply through developers' inattention rather than being a deliberate reinvention, such as:

* Big Ball of Mud

* Creeping featuritis

* Copy Pasta

There's patterns and then there's design patterns. The latter is more high-level, as you're thinking.
