Now you know why I HATE what Amazon is allowing. There is no change log or errata sheet.
When books were printed on paper, minor changes did NOT get done (at least, until the type had to be reset). Making plates was expensive and time consuming if new film had to be made (pre direct plate from computer era. I still did not expect this to be done, because of the chance 1 word could cause a ripple of new plates, at least to the next chapter gap).

BTW Are you going back and re-read the book, just because they changed a few words ??
