Pedophilia Book on Amazon Sparks Outrage

If this book is true to its description in teaching the adult in such a "relationship" how to treat the child with respect, and it helps prevent the irreparable harm which could be caused by an abusive relationship, then it's better in the hands of a pedophile than out.
Unfortunately, there's no way to look inside without actually purchasing the book.
It does appear that the author is particularly interested in themes that are surrounded by controversy. His other ebooks are about legalizing gay marriage, the right of convicts to vote, and 'disproving' the existence of G-d.
I can't judge on the quality of these books, not having read them. However, the descriptions supplied by the author are poorly written, which is never a good sign.
EDIT: Amazon has succumbed to the pressure and has taken the product page down. So much for principles.
They're disturbing, but seem to be as-advertised "if you're gonna do it, at least do it this safer way," similar to what you'd find in a (modern) sex-ed class. Still, they're just excerpts.
"his book has not garnered the sales for which he had hoped. In the days since its launch, he said, he had sold just one copy."
From the Amazon product page:
"Amazon Bestsellers Rank: #96 Paid in Kindle Store"
The book already has 1,917 'customer reviews', but few (if any) of those reviewers have actually bought and read the book.
I'm guessing that the 'bestsellers rank' isn't made up solely out of sales numbers but also of page views, reviews, user contributed artwork, and the like. That would mean that the criticasters are actually helping the book gain popularity.
