Is the softcover one the international version? That's what I am seeing a lot. I am also seeing nearly all professors and schools saying NOT to purchase the international version because they are not the same. I ignored this and bought the international text for EC Business Policy, which saved me a TON. If it is different from the text I'm supposed to be using, it is not noticeable. It seems to be the same page for page.
IMO, the schools want you to buy the super expensive domestic version from their bookstore for obvious reasons, which is why they don't want you to buy the international version. Poke around and make sure that the two versions are the same, and if they appear to be, save your sixty buckaroos. Just my 2 cents.
Fun fact: my spell check did not appear to have any problems with the word "buckaroos".
