Kate in Arabia Posted August 19, 2009 Share Posted August 19, 2009 ...do you refer back to earlier editions or only the latest one? I bought the latest edition this summer, I'm debating whether to keep both editions I currently have or only one. I haven't made notes in either, so it's not like I'd be losing personal notes, just gaining shelf space ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
patchfire Posted August 19, 2009 Share Posted August 19, 2009 I haven't made notes, but I do keep all of them. I like having the editions without the PHP products, just in case they don't work as well for one of my kids, yk? I also like to have the recommendations for supplemental books that may be OOP, because I frequent a huge, wonderful used bookstore. Right now I've loaned out my 2nd edition, too, and I like being able to loan out WTM without losing my own mind. ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hsmomto4 Posted August 19, 2009 Share Posted August 19, 2009 Is the new one really different? I've had mine for 6 years now, should I invest in the new one? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kate in Arabia Posted August 19, 2009 Author Share Posted August 19, 2009 Those were some of the points I was considering... I think the newest edition has some substantive changes from the older one I have, but I'm worrying that I'll get rid of the older one and regret it later. I am really terrible about parting with books, any books.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brindee Posted August 19, 2009 Share Posted August 19, 2009 I HAVE made many notes and dog-eared some pages of my 2nd edition book, so I'm keeping it! I've already dog-eared some pages and made some marks and notes in the new one also. When the next version comes out I'll probably get it and mess it up too! I like having them all to refer to!

I haven't made notes in either, so it's not like I'd be losing personal notes, just gaining shelf space ;) not only does it recommend all the books I already own, but the logic stage history and lit sections just fall right out - perfect for those times when carrying around the entire tome just won't do! :lol: (and, yes, I have SL, TOG, books at our library, and other lists gathered here and yonder penciled in the margins - in all three levels!) I have the new edition, and have read sections of it. But, I think I have the 2nd ed. practically memorized. I could never part with it!
