Hello! Who can say me what’s the difference between Lewis Carroll Epstein’s

Thinking Physics, Practical Lessons in Critical Thinking

and

Thinking Physics, Understandable Practical Reality

Is that difference just between 2nd and 3d editions and they have no difference in general?

Thanks!

I'm guessing just different editions, but I don't know for sure. You could look them up on Amazon and use the "Look Inside" feature (if it appears for those books) to compare the Tables of Contents...
