Different Textbook Editions
I'm sure everyone has noticed that there are different editions to textbooks, but have you ever wonder what the big difference is about them besides the older editions are much cheaper. Before you go and buy or rent you textbooks you might want and check to see if the books are available in a lower edition.
Sorry the pictures are not the best quality.
Now, Let's look at two textbooks that I have.
The Real World: An Introductory to Sociology
By: Kerry Ferris and Jill Stein
I have the First and Second editions of the books. The first is on the left and the second is on the right.
Opening the textbooks and this is what you see. All the same stuff expect for two of the pictures being different in the books on the left pages.
Now, lets take a look at the table of contents!
The one picture is a little blurry, but you can see the chapters are the same. You will notice that the pages are different because of the introduction in the one textbook.
Here is a paragraph from the textbooks and again you can see that it is the same stuff.
