Adding a book cover image

However, as it happens Amazon has that cover as well, so I added it from there."

Janet, is all the other info for the book the same? Publisher, page count, hardcover?
This is the book in question:
http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/18...

My copy is published by the author. The ISBN inside states 0951061909. The page count is the same as the one on here - 80.
If I put the ISBN from my paperback into the search on Goodreads it brings up the one you've linked above - but that states that it is a hardback.
According to Amazon the ISBN for the image you had under that ISBN is actually 978-1848682054 - which is not found on here in a search - and is 128 pages long!
So in summary, I think ISBN 0951061909 belongs to the 80 page paperback self-published version with the image in my profile...
...and ISBN 9781848682054 belongs to the 128 page paperback with the image you originally had on here, published by Amberley Publishing.
There doesn't appear to have ever been a version in hardback

You can find the cover on my website: http://www.cherylleepetro.com/books.html
or I also added it here on my profile :)
Thanks so much!

Can anyone help?
Also, it's a Danish translation of Kant's Grundlegung zur Metaphysik der Sitten (English edition here: http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/60... ). I'm not sure if they can/should be linked somehow?

This one http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/18...
belongs to this family: http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/85...

I just added this: http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/18...
which is a Danish translation similar to http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/25...
HOWEVER the book (the Danish translation) specifically mentions being a translation of Eduard Gans' amended edition from 1833.
I am not sure whether that means it should be combined with the other editions, or even if some or all of the other editions are actually of Gans' editions (the Danish book mentions Gans' edition as being "the default version" of the work)
Either way, I forgot to add the cover, which is here: http://www.detlilleforlag.dk/6storage...

http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/18...
The cover is here:

Thank you very much.


needs this cover image: http://images.saxo.com/ItemImage.aspx...
and it's name changed to
"Kants kritik af den rene fornuft" (no capitalization of every word)


You seem to have grouped it with the editions of "Twilight of the Gods / Anti-Christ". That appears to be a separate entity. It's only a translation of Twilight of the Idols, and as such should belong here instead: http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/85... (the cover on that page seems to be wrong, which might be why you confused it)

Thank you!
(I know I'm making a useless post here just to say thank you but hey!)

Thanks,

I noticed that the ISBN was incorrect - 13-digit shortened to 10, but the book with the correct ISBN already existed... So have made a note that it's an alternative-cover edition due to the differing covers and merged it with the other editions.
Anyways, job done! :)

Sorry - sometimes these threads can be so busy that it is easy for posts to be missed.
Does this mean that your book was never published? If so I'll update with the new cover, as we only replace them under those circumstances.
I'm also quoting your previous post, for reference for later.

I have a book in the database which does not show a cover. Can the 'generic' cover, a place-holder, be replaced with the Amazon cover?

Yes, the book was never published. Dorchester sent ARCs to NetGalley but then went out of business before publishing the book in any form (print or e-book). The Carina edition set to be released on September 23 with the new cover is the first time the book will be available to the general reading public. I don't think readers will recognize the "old" cover as the correct book.
Thanks,
Alyssa
ARCs distributed to readers count as published for Goodreads purposes.
Wouldn't the release from a new publisher have a different ISBN anyway?

I think it does have a different ISBN, or at least an ASIN. The Dorchester version (which says it was published April 1 2012 but which really never went on sale, because Dorchester went out of business) was 1428516425 (ISBN13: 9781428516427). The Carina version has an ASIN number, B00CV30X1U.
Then it just needs a new edition altogether. You can manually add that, or make a new thread in the adding new books folder. Be sure to include all the relevant data, as detailed here.
Edit: Actually, looks like that edition has already been added: http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/17...
For that edition the cover was clearly added pre-pub (just copied from the older edition), so I changed it.

The image I have uploaded to my profile doesn't appear to be anywhere else on the site that I can find.
Amazon shows the book with the image currently on Goodreads as having the ISBN 978-1848682054 - Goodreads has it as 978-0951061909.
Amazon shows the book that I have as having the ISP 978-0951061909.
I'm not sure how to word that without it sounding confusing so I hope someone can make sense of what I'm trying to say. :)
