=head1 DESCRIPTION
C<Net::Amazon::Request::ISBN> is a class used to submit ISBN (International

Upon success, the response's C<properties()> method will return a single
C<Net::Amazon::Property::Book> object.
=head2 METHODS
=over 4
=item new(isbn => $isbn)
Constructs a new C<Net::Amazon::Request::ISBN> object, used to query the Amazon
web service for an item with the given ISBN number. As of 2007-01-17 Amazon
supports 13-digit ISBNs. To construct a 13-digit ISBN from a 10-digit ISBN
simply prepended 978 to the ISBN. The ISBN must not contain hyphens.
It appears that not all 10-digit ISBNs can be turned into 13-digit ISBNs by
prepending 978. Amazon lists the 13-digit ISBN alongside 10-digit ISBN.
