Usually members aren't satisfied with related works, they want exactly the books they requested. However, feel free to post to post the first one in Book Shares, the secon one is already in the Library.

But you're right, it's confusing when all the books are by the same author with similar titles. More often than not, requesting members will even ignore explanations that the content of discovered books is identical with the one originally requested, only with another title published by a separate publisher, or another edition of it. Therefore I won't go on a research expedition for this one, it's a waste of effort.
