We do not change covers for paperback editions, you can request a further edition at 'adding new books & editions'
Hi Martin,Thanks for the reply though I’m not sure I follow. The edition is there but it just has the wrong cover. It’s not a new or alternative edition. The edition with the current cover never existed.
Is this a new thing, because I’ve had many, many paperback editions updated and corrected over the years?
There’s actually an interesting reason I do know and if you had a copy of the book in front of you, you would see my name listed in the acknowledgments. So because I know the author and was involved in the creation of the book is the real answer.But this is an Amazon-produced print on demand book and you can see from that listing that this is the cover of both the ebook (which matches the listing on here) and the paperback. The cover that’s currently on here was uploaded before publication and was subject to design changes between then and publication.
If you search for that ISBN, you won’t find the current Goodreads version of the cover anywhere but on Goodreads (I think!)

The cover of the paperback version of this is incorrect (the colour of the title text) and I think comes from a pre-publication draft. The correct colour scheme and accurate cover is as shown on the Amazon listing, so if the cover could please be replaced with the correct version: https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/099332152...
Also, the correct page count is 317, which is the last page of the Bibliography. There are only blank pages after that.
Source for both is the copy in my hands.
Thanks in advance.
