Note: This book came out with different titles in the UK and in the US. In the UK, and in most other English editions, it was named Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone. But the US publisher wanted to change name to Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone, because they felt that audience would not have sufficient background into classical mythology to know what the Philosopher's Stone was. Rowling claims she now regrets the change and would have fought if she had been in a better position at the time.
