I noticed the pub pattern, publisher, and ISSN differences early last month.
I, of course, ran to my OCLC terminal to get the definitive answer, but
found only the old, unchanged record, with no new one added.  I just checked
again, and found nothing added or changed in OCLC.

I'm wondering if the "new" ISSN is really a typo on the part of the new
publisher, or if it is really a newly-assigned one, coincidentally similar
to the original.

It just occurred to me to call Blackwell and ask them these questions.  I've
left a voice-mail message, and will pass along their response when they
return my call.
