Why did the publisher produce a Revised Second Edition?
The second edition is a more potent translation, benefiting from a much deeper understanding of Anastasia’s intent, gained over the 3-year translation process by the translator John Woodsworth and editor Dr Leonid Sharashkin. The text of Book 1, Anastasia, for example, has had over 500 subtle changes made to it—including the addition of more footnotes. The remainder of the volumes have had fewer revisions.
