Question for someone who knows about textbooks:

Textbooks are going to cost me more than my tuition this semester unless I can shop around online. The problem is that the booklist doesn't provide ISBNs for all of the texts, nor complete author names, and the titles are all in shorthand.

Would I be ****ing myself over if I purchased books regardless of edition? If the 2nd edition is required and the cheapest/easiest to find is the 7th, will I find myself completely lost? Is there a place to find ISBNs of my required texts, where I can search by edition?
