Reprints will have the same ISBN; new editions will not. I would imagine
they've reprinted it due to all the Klingon in /Discovery,/ but had to
give it a new cover, because the Klingons look completely different now
and "Including New Material from Star Trek: The Next Generation and Star
Trek VI" isn't exactly relevant. Alas that they did not take the
opportunity to commission a third edition—not that I would have expected
them to.
