ummmmmmm looks closely errrrr:confused:


I got this a few months ago, all for for about £15 in the uk. and very nice it is too, if a little heavy to carry around and read on the train :)
 
Are these new editions?
Do they have a forward, if so who by?
Do they have an index?
Any new or extra information?
 
Indeed, I have the same book as jima, I got it from Borders a couple of years ago for £20 or somesuch. And it's hardback :)
 
The best I can find is the info on the publishers site - via:

They appear to reprint old and/or out of print unusual classics:

This quest for enrichment is the foundation for Cosimo, an innovative publisher of books that inspire, inform and engage readers worldwide. Via our imprint Cosimo Classics, we present distinctive, unique, rare and sometimes out-of-print books written by the great authors and thinkers throughout the ages. These hidden treasures that once inspired, informed and engaged readers are now revitalized and available to new readers, young and old, at home and abroad; representing subjects as diverse as Alternative Health, Business and Economics, Eastern Philosophy, Personal Growth, Mythology, Philosophy, Sacred Texts, Science, Spirituality and much more! In a world without borders, our books will be available anytime and anywhere using online bookstores andthe latest publishing technologies.

Which is sort of what I was suggesting FT should do here:

[edit: I've dropped Mr. X a line as he strikes me as the best person to ask about this.]
