Comments and Reviews


ppint. 16th Jun 2022		duckduckgo° for sbn & isbn - standard book number and international standard book number - read, learn and inwardly digest the information upon these that is readily and clearly available - - and which yr hmbl srppnt. has from time-to-time précised ''here'' on bookcat. ° - other search engines are available



ppint. 16th Jun 2022		the number you have added and stated is an sbn is not an sbn.



ppint. 16th Jun 2022		this book does not bear an sbn upon its cover.



annaloog ● 16th Jun 2022		Your original note was left unchanged when the duplicate was merged. The printing history as listed on the Bantam (first) edition copyright page was added (as mentioned in my previous comment), as was the list of stories from the contents page. The SBN is printed on the spine. I am still at a loss to understand what you find fault with. <insert scratches head emoji>



ppint. 16th Jun 2022		''??in what way?'' - in what *ways*. - why break what was previously accurate, and not broken ?



ppint. 16th Jun 2022		this does not bear an sbn - a standard book number.



ppint. 16th Jun 2022		it is not an edition of ''new writings in sf 7'' ed. john carnell (transworld publishers corgi books 1966)



ppint. 16th Jun 2022		this is not an edition of ''new writings in sf 7'' ed. john carnell (dennis dobson 1966).



ppint. 16th Jun 2022		this is not an edition of the original anthology''new writings in sf 7'' ed. john carnell (1966), q.v. it is a reprint anthology whose contents were drawn from three different original anthologies published during 1966, ''new writings in sf #7'', ''new writings in sf #8'' and ''he writings in sf #9'' as previously carefully explained when the original anthology series was added to bookcat, and also when the derived merkin reprint anthologies drawn from various of the original anthology series anthologies were entered. its title upon the front cover is ''new writings in science fiction: sf 7'' under which it was previously bookcatted, not least to clearly and recognisably differentiate it from the original anthology series. ° - the space and colon ('' :'') being used traditionally to distinguish between separate parts of a title that might elsewise be separated by a solidus (''/'')



annaloog ● 15th Jun 2022		?? In what way?



ppint. 15th Jun 2022		notes section is now wrong in multiple ways and should be deleted.



annaloog ● 15th Jun 2022		Thanks for that info. I have merged to the original entry, and changed the title to match what is on the book's spine and title page (the latter which I can't scan without breaking the binding). Though note, Bantam's printing history mentions the earlier Dobson and Corgi editions.



ppint. 15th Jun 2022		the contents do not match the original uk anthology of similar but different title to which it is linked. it is the same item as the pre-existing bookcat item mentioned, being a reprint anthology whose contents were drawn from three different original anthologies published by dennis dobson and by transworld publishers in the uk, whose cat#, publication date, etc. are all given, and whose contents are all already carefully given and differentiated from those of this merkin reprint anthology, whose publisher/imprint, cat#, publication date, title, contents etc. are all also carefully given in the pre-existing bookcat item. the cover art image should be transferred to the pre-existing bookcat item, and then this mis-linked duplicate item should be deleted.



ppint. 15th Jun 2022		if the contents do not match the uk original anthology, published by dennis dobson in h/cvr and by transworld publishers as a corgi books imprint p/b, it should not be linked to them as being identical with them; if it is the same mmpb reprint anthology drawing upon several of the original anthologies, as is already entered as a bookcat item, and the same printing as this, the cover art should be moved to it and then this duplicate (and mistakenly linked) item should be deleted.



annaloog ● 14th Jun 2022		This is, possibly, the same as the imageless entry here, although the title is slightly different, and it is not linked to the canon. If that can be established, the entries can then be merged and linked. mod edit: duplicate entry merged with original
