Correct Dr. Atkins book version?

[teeja]

Everyone seems to be telling us we need the Dr. Atkins New Diet Revolution (DANDR) (2002 Version)...

I found a 2003 version on Amazon... is this the same book?

Link: DANDR 2003 Version

Thanks for any help on this!

I'll allow someone to correct me if I'm wrong, but I THINK that's the early 90's edition, but it was published in 2003. But it's the same version as the early 90's.

The reason I think this is because, if you look in the description of the book, it says "Copyright 1992 Reed Business Information, Inc."

Although it's still called the New Diet Revolution, which is what the new one is called, but somehow, that book doesnt look right.

...and if you look at the customer's reviews on that book, they date back to 1997 lol. Definitely not the right book.

Re: Correct Dr. Atkins book version?

Hmm... I'm still confused. I found a 2002 version on Amazon, but the number of pages is the exact same as the one I listed before, and the picture is the same...

Okay, here's another link; is this the correct one?:

2002 Version on Amazon

Have you checked Walmart. I wouldn't pay 16.97 for it. The paperback was like 7.00 at Walmart when I got it.

Yep, I'll probably get it a wallyworld or target, but I want to make sure first that I'm getting the right version.... so far I've found several versions from the 90's, one from 2001, 2002 and 2003, but the one from 2002 looks the same as the one from 2003 and one of the 2001 versions, which is very confusing.

Wondering is there a big difference in all these versions? What is the difference? Could someone look at the 2002 version you know is the right one and tell me how many pages it has?

Walmart sells about 4 different versions of this book on their web site, so that's even more confusing.... and here's the one I think is right, but it says it's the 2002 version, and then says that it was published in 2003. Jeesh!

Re: Correct Dr. Atkins book version?

It is confusing for sure, I was trying to pull it up for you, but even putting in the ISBN # a different cover (slightly) came up. Anyhow my ISBN# is 006001203X. If you put that in your search bar you may be able to find it.

Anyone else out there that can check their ISBN # on the back of the book by the price area to help out here?

Re: Correct Dr. Atkins book version?

You're looking at the wrong thing lol I can see what you're looking at to think that it's 2003, 2002...don't go by that. Thats just the year that those books were printed. They aren't necessarily the edition of that year. Books can be reprinted for hundreds of years after they were written.

This is the one you want. I can't find it on amazon, which is strange...

What's the difference between the "old" and "new" versions of the book?

Re: Correct Dr. Atkins book version?

You can also tell by Dr. A's foreword which says "This is an updated version of the book I wrote 10 years ago..."

That was 1992, so the copywrite should say 1992, 1999, 2002.

That is what mine says in the preface. My book is white though.

You can't judge a book by its cover...

Mine is white, too.
