This is not the only "problem". Sometimes the title of the book is changed, plus the ISBN (which is directly tied to the publisher's name) if a different publisher is used!!!! This is terrible when you are not allowed to return the book. Wish something would be done about it by the publishers, but they only wish to distribute more books. You have to read the descriptions very carefully, and perhaps write to Arachne to get info as to the publishing history of a book. Some reviews never mention this and appear in book reviews in magazines you are reading. This is where keeping a book inventory comes in handy, and one reason my book inventory is kept by author's name coming first (before title). That way, I can retrieve all the books by an author and see what similarities are present. Two (2) very similar books by Heather Toomer would be an example. These were thoroughly reviewed on Arachne 8/21/08. .
