The edition behind this number
Read this result carefully
The 1995 first HarperPerennial edition is recorded with 400, the broad Language class, in MARC 082 using DDC edition 20. This book discusses human language; it is not a novel classified by the language it was written in. The source supplies a broad number, so this page does not invent a more detailed subdivision. Compare the edition and your own library’s full shelf mark.
The record lists a valid ISBN associated with this edition. That does not independently verify every metadata field, establish a universal number for every version, or give the complete local shelf location. Compare the source with your copy.
