70-697 and 698 MS Press books: Purchase 1st or 2nd edition?

For the Microsoft Press books:
Exam Refs (the green cover)
70-697 and 698
Should I purchase the 1st or 2nd edition?
My thinking is the 2nd edition would have more correct/updated info?

Thanks! I'm checking it out.

Yeah, when I did Windows exams many years ago, I learned MS Press books may not be so good, and I'm a bit adverse to them.

When came exam time, it almost seem like for some things, the book didn't help, at all.
