Is there actually a difference between the 9th edition and 10th edition of a textbook? Because the 10th edition is about 400 dollars at the NYU bookstore and the 9th edition is fifty dollars on Amazon and I know which one I personally would prefer.

I know this is going to sound weird coming from me, but no book is worth 400 dollars.

Textbook market is a HUGE scam. For a non-math/science class you can probably get away with the old edition, although if your prof gives page/chapter assignments stuff may be organized differently. If you have homework from the book, def worth looking at most current edition (either another student or library copies).
