Score 2. Did you mean: ninth edition?

This title seems more appropriate for a business textbook or even self-help book than an economics textbook, but I’m rating the title itself not the flavortext. It could be a four if it weren’t for the unconventional nature of “edition nine” per Kevan.

Score 1, change of score. Bucky makes a compelling point about the other three words.

Forking out money for yet another “new” edition that has maybe 10 whole corrections in it from the previous edition. Score 3.
