Notice that this is the first edition (1974), 25th

the Preface, Don Lancaster states "I don't like to revise books. Correct,
yes. Revise, no."
I have sixth printing from 1976 and the 28th printing from 1997. I think
this was this final printing.

I remember this book fondly. I had a passing thought: "Could we somehow
reprint this for the modern age, and inspire young people with this story
of building-block digital technology?"
Then I remembered that this stuff is only minimally available and teaching
digital design based on TTL is somewhat like teaching fashion design based
on mammoth skins. <sigh> -- Ian
