Two books, same title and author

[edit]

Carr published two books in 2010:

  • The Shallows: What the Internet Is Doing to Our Brains
  • The Shallows: How the Internet Is Changing the Way We Think, Read and Remember

What is the difference between the two books, and why does this article only mention one of them? Softlavender (talk) 09:41, 4 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I just contacted the author, and the second one is the title of the same book, as it was published in the UK. I have noted that in the article. Softlavender (talk) 00:55, 5 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

How big was the book in the UK? If it is not all that popular, it would look a lot nicer to not have both titles right there in the first sentence. Roosters93 (talk) 11:57, 2 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Agreed, but I think it's more a function of its stub status than anything else. Viriditas (talk) 16:31, 23 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
