I have had a couple of private emails pointing out that the new 2003 version 15 of Dutton's might have less celestial navigation content than the classic versions, in favour of updated electronic navigation content that undoubtedly will outdate in a few years. They asked me to post a comparison to the list when my book arrives. Not being familiar with earlier editions, I will not be able to do a comparison. I hope the CN content is not diminished, because I am on the CN learning curve. However I also teach beginner GPS so I am interested in the contemporary electronic content anyway.
