#131 - there's something funny going on with the Amazon page for that title.I think the ISBN has been reused.
I started editing the book information, but I've reverted it.
I'm not sure how to handle books with re-used ISBNs.

Biopolitikkens fødsel. Forelæsninger på Collège de France, 1978-1979
Currently combined with
The Birth of Biopolitics: Lectures at the Collège de France, 1978-1979
Should be combined with
Sikkerhed, territorium, befolkning. Forelæsninger på Collège de France, 1977-1978 plus 14
#137/138 I don't think that is correct. There are now two Danish books (both were incorrectly listed as Finnish, which I've corrected) combined with Sécurité, territoire, population (#7). Biopolitikkens fødsel literally translates as The Birth of Biopolitics, which is book 8, with which it was combined before this change was made.
Also, the years are different (1977-1978 vs 1978-1979).
Perhaps the cover on one of the books is/was incorrect. I have trouble reading the fine print of the subtitle, but thought the title of the first book, including years, was incorrect.I included the covers in my post originally because one of the titles didn't correspond.
#141 I don't know what you saw where, but both covers match exactly with the title and subtitle as they are listed on GR (including 1977 on one and 1978 on the other). There are no recent changes for title or cover on these.I have moved Biopolitikkens fødsel back to the other 1978-1979 editions.

Hello, at first when I saw this record Hurry Up, Franklin: Read-Aloud Edition and the info in the record was for "Hurry up Franklin" I thought that maybe the cover was wrong but I happened to check the ISBN: 9781453248447 through worldcathttps://www.worldcat.org/search?q=978...
and it actually took me to Jo Ann Ferguson's book called "Sybill" which would match the cover here but not the record it's combined with or the info that is on this edition.
So maybe it should be combined with this record then Sybill and the info in the record to be cleaned up a bit.
Thank you, hopefully this is not too confusing.
