I'm looking to buy a particular textbook.. The previous edition is much cheaper. If I were to buy that, would I be ok with the course? I've heard that basically the only difference between editions is that the topics are switched around. Example: 7th edition's chapter 3 might be about a particular topic and in edition 8, that same topic is now in chapter 5.Is there any big difference between textbook editions?
There shouldn't be big differences but its not impossible either.Is there any big difference between textbook editions?
Yes, yes to all below answers with this qualification. If the textbook is in a subject which changes quickly and there are several years between editions - Physics, perhaps or Engineering. May be worth some time online to see if you can pinpoint any major changes.Is there any big difference between textbook editions?
not mostly!
but if it's a revised edition, then there can be a change
