Re: Edition vs. printing statements

[Lauraine Lindbloom <Literacy501@AOL.COM>]

I have a question about edtion statements.

When figuring edition vs. printing, how can you tell?  For example: if a book
has the number line of 10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3    is this a 3rd printing?  or is it
a 3rd edtion? Or is it nothing?  If it has these numbers but says 'First
edition' is it the 3rd printing of the First edition?

OR if the number line is "mixed up", what does that mean?  Like:
5 7 9 10 8 6 4     1st Edition

Thanks so much,
