The book covers 6th Edition Unix; there's no such thing as the 6th edition
of the Lions book.

6th Edition Unix came out in 1975.

Lions published his book analyzing the 6th Edition Unix code in 1977, but
it was only available legally to those who had a Unix source code license.

In 1996, old SCO OK'd the official re-publication of Lions' book.
