Can't really see what all the fuss is about. They shouldn't have made the changes, no doubt, but they're all pretty insignificant. Publisher's exert significantly more influence when the author is alive and writing the book in the first place. The only one that ticks me off is that they added a "dedication to doctors" to one of the books.

I wonder, if it were your favourite childhood author, would you be okay with hundreds of sneaky little cuts and changes being inflicted?

Agreed on the 'dedicated to doctors' being added - that's even more fucked up than the memory holing.
