I've had this book for many years. I've enjoyed what I read and was going to really dig into this. I've noticed that since I bought this, there has been a 2nd & 3rd edition with a 4th edition coming out in a few months.. What I'm asking is: are there big changes between these editions or are they pretty much the same? Should I just use my 1st edition or should I wait for the 4th edition?

There seem to be 2 books in one here (not the Oxford Very Short Introduction book), one is a 600+ textbook by Susan Blackmore and Emily Troscianko from 2018 by Routledge. The other is also published by Routledge and authored by Susan Blackmore, but not co-authored by anyone, is from 2003 and is around 230 pages long. Again, I am not talking about the OUP book from the other question. Can anyone seperate them please?
