edition

Definition

All copies of a publication published in one or more impressions but in one format, from the same typeset master, bound and issued at the same time or at several intervals. The first new version of a first edition containing corrections and/or some new material is called a 'revised edition.' A 'new edition,' by tradition, must have 10 percent of new material. Subsequent revisions or editions are numbered sequentially as 'second,' 'third,' 'fourth,' and so on.
