There is also the changes of a serialised version in a magazine or newspaper vs a later novel.
Then bizarrely a movie or TV show can be made from a book, but then later Disney or whoever will pay for a novelisation of the movie or TV, which is almost always poorer than the original.

Earlier translations of Jules Verne are the opposite of the regular trend in publishing as they often abridged and the later translations are usually complete. None of the complete good translations are PD. Some of the PD Verne in English are poor.
