Sorcerer's Stone

Sorry but I must ask this: What is a Sorcerer's Stone?

Now I thought the Philosopher's Stone was the missing ingredient needed to
change base metals into gold, and it was searched for by the alchemists, eg.
Flamel. If I remember, this was actually mentioned in HP-PS. I understand
that the Americans changed the title to Sorcerer's Stone. Did they also
change it right through the book? Is the historical Philosopher's Stone
actually called a 'sorcerer's stone' in America?

I just can't get my head around that.

Simon.
