I have the 1st edition of the TTB (1998).  Does anyone know what the difference is, if any, between the 1st and 2nd editions (2004) and if the information contained in the newer version is updated/changed enough to justify buying the newer version? I looked online and the table of contents seem basically the same.

Thanks,

Andi

IIFC the primary difference is in the strength training section and I definitely wouldn't worry about buying another one based on that.

Also I believe there was a 3rd addition either already out or coming out, which had a heavy emphasis on training and aging.

Interesting, I will have to keep my eye out for that one, what with me becoming a "master" in about 15 months!

I have the second. It was an ok read, would not have bought it on my own (it was a gift). You can gain more knowledge here just by reading, but if you are not someone to read through a ton of old information on a website, definitely a good read to gain some initial knowledge of the sport.
