Hi Mac, Last summer I requested an interlibrary loan for the two books by Cousins. I got both books. The covers were the same, the wording on each page was the same in several cases that I checked. If there was a difference, it may have been only a slight difference in the appendix or near the end of the books. The book is a classic, but 99.9% duplicated between the two editions (1969 and 1970).
