I checked amazon of Japan some times ago, the release date of ‘Understanding Asexuality’ by Anthony F Bogaert changes ‘2012/08/16’.
August 16th is the actual publication date according to the publisher. Amazon.com apparently just has it wrong (Or the book was a delayed) and hasn’t fixed it yet. It you look at Amazon.com, it still says March 16th, yet the book is still in “Pre-Order”, which means they don’t have any to ship to people. I had pre-ordered it in February, and it didn’t ship in March. Eventually Amazon sent me a note saying they weren’t able to obtain a copy and wanted to know if I wanted to cancel my order.Maybe if we all tell them that they’re wrong, they’ll fix the date. I told them about it back in March, but they still haven’t done anything about it.
redbeardace, thanks your reply.

Publication Date is March, but “This title has not yet been released”!! Now is May!

You have already told Amazon. But they have done nothing…Amazon.com does not seem to do good work at least about it.
There is topic about the book in AVEN:Book: Understanding Asexuality by Anthony F Bogaert
I checked publisher’s page:https://rowman.com/ISBN/9781442200999 Release month is August.

Well, I agree with you. I thought that there was time lag between amazon.com and amazon.co.jp. But it is not. I can change my thought. Thank you very much, redbeardace!(^-^/

By the way, in amazon.ca and amazon.de, release is August.
