Thanks for the reply and fixing the post @Perry

I thought there was significant differences, I just didn’t know the extent. Do you know where I can find the First Edition of the book for purchase? I can readily find the second edition on Amazon, but it seems the knowledge I am after is in the first edition.

@kittypearl and @johnb,

I was able to find and download the file from the wordpress site by searching Handbook of Cosmetic Science and Technology, Third Edition on Google. Although, I don’t think this content is supposed to be available because it keeps on getting taken down. I hope I am not breaking any forum rules by posting this link, but if I am let me know I will be glad to remove it. 

On another note, has anyone read the previous editions to this book? They seem to be completely different and not just adding a few pages here and there.
