[Leica] Anchell's darkroom books: which is which ?

[leicar8 at direcway.com (tm)]

The first book contains recipes from which you can make your own batches of 
film developers. The second book contains many more items, including 
discussions re films, developer ingredients, types of developers, formulas, 
and -- best of all -- recommended development time for hundreds of films and 
developers.

  Amazon lists two entries for Anchell's "Darkroom Cookbook":
  1. The Darkroom Cookbook by Stephen G. Anchell
  2. The Film Developing Cookbook (Darkroom Cookbook) by
      Stephen G. Anchell and Bill Troop

  What is the difference between these 2 books ?
  I am a little confused.

  I am looking for a good reference for B&W film developing.
  I already have Ansel Adam's "The Negative".
  I am looking for a more recent book to complement
  it, especially with respect to newer film/developers.
  The Negative is an excellent technical treatise, so
  perhaps a "cookbook" style with good "recipes" would
  be good as a second book on film development.

  Thanks in advance for any help,

  - Phong
