Hachette Books (hachettebooks) | 178 comments Hi! There are some issues with the GoodReads listing of Rolf Dobelli's The Art of the Good Life:
(1) Only two editions are listed on the GoodReads site;
(2) The editions featured on the GoodReads site do not match the ISBNs of the books editions available on our site;
(3) The editions on GoodReads do not have cover images.

If possible, we would like these changes to be updated as soon as possible. Please refer to our website for the correct ISBN, format, and cover information: https://www.hachettebookgroup.com/sea...

Thanks!

Monika (monikal) | 674 comments Hey there,
(1) The other two editions (paperback and audio) also exist, they were just not combined with the main book.
(2)The ISBNs of all editions match with the ones on your website. The books were imported by the Hachette bots and the ISBNs are attributed correctly.
(3)The audiobook did not have a cover, so I've added that. Since neither amazon nor your website has the paperback cover uploaded, the cover for it remains missing.

Thanks for reaching out and providing the information!

Philip | 2 comments Hi!

I write to see if you can fix a three errors on my author page:

(1) You have two variants of this title: Was the Cat in the Hat Black?: The Hidden Racism of Children's Literature and the Need for Diverse Books (Oxford UP, 2017). THIS one is CORRECT and should be retained:

https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3...

This one is INCORRECT and should be merged with the above (correct) title:
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...

(2) Would you be so kind as to add the cover image to Was the Cat in the Hat Black?
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3...

Here's a nice resolution of the cover image (from my blog):

(3) Philip Nel and Eric Reynolds should be listed as co-editors of Crockett Johnson's Barnaby Vol. 2
https://www.goodreads.com/metadata_an...
And this book should appear on my author page. (You have us down as co-editors for Barnaby Vol. 1 and Barnaby Vol. 3 — just not Vol. 2.)

Thanks very much!


Phil

☕ Lachgas ♿  (lachgas) | 9386 comments #3 added the cover, combined them and will ask for a merge in another thread (because of the existing review a super librarian is needed for that)
(asked here for a merge https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/... it may take a while until it's done depending on when someone got the time for it)

We don't list editors of single author works so it's more likely you'll be removed from vol 1 and 3 - but I'm not firm with comics so I'll leave that for a more comic experienced librarian
