My educated guess is that if you take care to click only the second edition links, you will indeed get the second edition. They probably keep first edition copies around for cases when that's what a customer needs. Also, keeping the first edition reviews around probably makes sense to some extent. In some cases, second edtions are very light edits only (unlike this one) and there's no way to tell how much actually changed unless you read the material. I suspect not too many people at amazon.com actually read either edition of this one. Then again, if you have any lingering doubts you could go directly to the source at nostarch.com and get several ebook formats together (in zip archive I think). All the best, Peter -- Peter N. M.
