Although I realize there's still some contention of what represents a "work", OCLC "FRBRizes" the WorldCat bibliographic database to bring together all manifestations for a given title, e.g., all the title's editions and translations. But for most published titles, there isn't any other representation. And for some, there are lots.
I just blogged about "WorldCat <http://hangingtogether.org/?p=5295> 's smallest and largest worksets" for those interested. My thanks to my colleague Jenny Toves for providing me all the statistics! FYI, Karen Smith-Yoshimura
