      Just curious is this is the EXACT same book that is on Amazon.com for $2.99. Is your version longer or better in some way? Thanks for your time.

        This edition has been expanded with an appendix of Edison’s patents, patent sketches, and pages from his diary. The appendix is not in the edition on Amazon.
