The send edition of Hartung's book was edited and significantly updated by Davids Malin and Frew.
The collectible ones are those in mint condition with dust jacket and signed in ink on the flyleaf by David Malin (I was one who stood in the queue to have it signed), arguably it is a collectible as there are people willing to pay quite a lot for one - sold mine on IIS for considerably more than I paid.
From a practical standpoint, the internet era has superseded books like this. Do not be a dummy and pony up megabucks for an unsigned second edition or the first edition, its nothing special.
