Hello all!
A trade edition is usually a smaller or standard paper size edition of the same text. Reader's Digest, for example, often publishes several novels together in a larger than usual paperback--the size is such that they haven't had to cut down the paper from it's stock size, which usually makes it slightly cheaper than the traditional paperback size.

Interestingly, both Marylyn Calabrese and Reva Daniel replied with two different ISBNs for supposedly the same book. When I asked Reva about those, she discovered that Marylyn's is a "spiral trade edition" while hers represents a "spiral bound text edition."Would any of you know what those descriptive differences mean? And for those of you ordering any kind of books who may not be aware of this, different ISBNs exist for similar publications.Confusing and interesting! Thanks again for all your assistance and sympathy.Linda
