 Revised edition available November 20, 2009
BP
I have not yet bought this edition, though I need to very soon. I know that there were numerous errors with the first printing of the sixth edition. I agree that it is inexcusable to have so many errors in a publication manual. However, I believe that the second printing is already available for purchase, with all of the corrections. I also got the following information from the APA website for those who already own the first printing:
"Many people have found that the corrections supplement meets their needs; if you find, however, that it doesn't meet yours, we will provide you an exchange replacement copy of the second printing of the Publication Manual at no cost to you. (The second printing corrects all identified errors.) We are making this replacement process available to individuals and institutions who have purchased the manual.
In order to receive an exchange replacement manual, you must return your current copy of the sixth edition to APA no later than December 15, 2009.
We would like to make this transaction as cost neutral to you as possible. A process has been created to provide you with a UPS postage paid return label that you can use to return the book to us. Please call the APA Service Center at 800-374-2721 for more information about the paid return postage process."

It has been recalled due to all the errors in it. I hope that people contact APA so that they can get the revised edition. This is not a fault of Amazon. Hopefully, all customers will purchase the revised edition in the future.

The first printing (which was the one that I bought) had a number of errors in it. It has since been reprinted with corrections. Be sure you have the 2nd printing not the first. I have to get the corrected version now since I actually have to use it.
Easy to follow, but with some errors! November 19, 2009
FRAN (NY, NY USA)
This 6th edition has some discrepancies and a new revision will be available after Jan. 2010. Wait for the revised edition and refer to the 5th edition if one is needed for now.

There are too many errors in this version. Thus, the book is useless. Wait until version two comes out to purchase it.
