I was in London last week and picked up Krugman's book at the airport to
read on the flight back, when I noticed something interesting.

The UK version of the book has a completely different cover that the US
version. The former has Bush and Cheney and words like Oil and Enron. The
latter is sanitized (or Hannitized, as some might say) and has a fairly
innocuous red band.

Not only that, but the titles are different. The UK version is called - The
Great Unravelling: From Boom to Bust in Three Scandulous Years. The US
version is called - The Great Unraveling: Losing Our Way in the New Century.

I can understand the need the need for a different cover, but why a
different title?
