This is the most important grammar of Greek in the English speaking world. It is a towering achievement which every serious student ought to read at some point in their lives. But it is not for the faint-hearted, not so much because it is difficult, but because of the volume of information it contains. It should take anywhere from between six months to a year to fully work through. The Logos electronic version has excelled in capturing digitally a very complex work with many strange diacritics. The great thing is that it is fully searchable which means that one can look up any Greek word or phrase with ease. I commend Logos for the excellent way in which they have reproduced this masterful work. Do not worry about this being the "earlier" version. I have the later Harvard version and have not been able to find any differences between this edition and that one.

I am assuming, based on the title, year published, and shorter length that this is not the revised edition...?
