For those who have purchased the second ed of John Walton' ANE Thought, would you say there is a substantial difference in update info compared to the 1st ed?

    I am also interested in knowing the difference.  Seems strange both editions are for sale

    I haven't had the chance to look at the 2nd edition prior to just now after seeing this question. After a quick glance:

    The chapter numbers and titles are the same (so, no new chapters have been added)--though I noticed a change in the heading in chapter 1 from "Goals of Background and Comparative Study" to "Goals of Cognitive Environment Criticism". There may be other small changes in headings. 

    Page number looks like it has gone down in the 2nd edition, but at first glance this seems to just be due to the fact that front matter is numbered in 1st edition and roman numerals in 2nd edition. 

    The only new material that is obvious from glancing at frontmatter is more photos, tables, and sidebars:

    Example from 1st edition:

    Example from 2nd edition:
