The bibliographical definition of an edition includes all copies of a book printed “from substantially the same setting of type,” including all minor typographical variants.
The numbering of book editions is a special case of the wider field of revision control. The traditional conventions for numbering book editions evolved spontaneously for several centuries before any greater applied science of revision control became important to humanity, which did not occur until the era of widespread computing had arrived (when software and electronic publishing came into existence). The old and new aspects of book edition numbering (from before and since the advent of computing) are discussed below.
According to the definition of edition above, a book printed today, by the same publisher, and from the same type as when it was first published, is still the first edition of that book to a bibliographer. However, book collectors generally use the term first edition to mean specifically the first print run of the first edition (aka "first edition, first impression"). Since World War II, books often include a number line (printer's key) that indicates the print run.
First edition is the first set of copies of a book printed from substantially the same setting of type.

Welcome To KVK, with all the girls calling me playa

When you see me on the floor, you wanna stop drop and roll
Heres my man Peyrock, Hes gonna show you how to jock
(Verse 2, Peyrock)
My name is Peyrock, and im always in stock
I walk the walk, and i talk the talk
Im wearing my pumas, and I aint spreading rumas
Cause when im wearing my airs, it just aint even fair
My car is so rare that when i drive by, all you do is stare
I look so good that no one cares, When im sitting there chilling in my notty underwear
Now i gotta pass it to my vanilla N Shizzle, Hes gonna come at you like like a missle
And now im done and trust me man, It aint the last one
(Verse 3, N Shizzle)
