I see no evidence of plagiarism or shady business practices.
Beck's lone name on the cover of this latest book infers (actually, more than infers) authorship and written notation in the face page of the special autographed edition overtly claims it.

Beck's previous books list 'wrtiers' and 'contributors' to his works - this one only lists 'contributors' but fails to list any 'writers' although it is obvious Beck did not write the book as he and others stated in the interview with USAToday. Why?

No plagiarism? No shady business practices? No dice.

However - YMMV - and so it goes...
