I apologize Will. I assumed that by asking the question "a book?" you were stating that you were unaware that there was a book which was the original material the movie was derived from. The whol point of me starting this topic was to be able to read other peoples feelings on the obvious leaps the movie is taking from the source material. And I stated above, I thought Omega Man was horrible, both as a movie and as an adaptation of the book. But I still think the deviation of setting and the shift to an action/horror oriented plot is going to make I Am Legend the one that feels the least like the book, which was mainly an introspective on Neville, and less a horror book about vampires.
