I used 9e at business school back in 2004, paid around $90 for the then-new edition. lately I was thinking about looking at this book again and found the prices for 11e, 12e at around $2xx on Amazon. I close;y looked at the Table of Contents of 9e and 12e, and even read the Preface in 12e. The authors said they updated one chapter "significantly", and added a few new cases. From a student point of view, I would not believe it does not warrant the edition upgrade. I knew from a professor at my school that a common tactic in the publishing industry is that the publisher keep pushing the authors to make changes to their books so new editions can be published, thus new, higher prices can be charged. Most students are below-average-income people. I don't think it is ethical and fair to publish new editions of books w/o really deliver commensurate new contents.

The book shown is not the book I received. I was supposed to receive the 12th edition of the statistics book and the seller sold me the 11th edition. After waiting 4 weeks, and school being right in the thick of things, you could see how frustrating that is.
