If there are two or more books combined together, the separate tool lets you separate multiple books while leaving them all combined to each other. This is good if 2+ books of a kind are combined with other books.

This method separates multiple editions at a time, so it is useful when you have editions which belong together as a different book:
1. On the book page, click the "Other Editions" box to see all of the combined editions.
2. In the sidebar, click on the "separate" link.
3. Select the editions to be separated from the list, then click the "separate editions" button.
4. Now all of the editions which you had selected are one new book.
This method just separates one edition:
1. Open the combine page for the author.
2. Find the edition in the list of books, then click the "separate" link beside it.
3. Now that edition is a new book.
