This is a translation of the second edition. A revised and expanded edition is currently available, which I also purchased on Amazon, but it only included the preface to the third edition. I shouldn't have bought it... For reference, I've attached a photo of the beginning of the afterword from the expanded edition. Slightly soiled. Please judge from the photos. - Title: The Gnostic Religion - Accessories: Obi (sash) Thank you for looking.
