For owners of the immediately-preceding version of Call of Cthulhu, there's not much that's new here, rules wise. Some formatting and layout clean-up, maybe some corrections, but no major rules changes. This version DOES have the same layout as the special Limited Edition CoC rule books that were published some time back, and that IS a change: if you're a collector of CoC gaming books, you'll want to get one of these for that point alone.
If you're a veteran CoC player or Keeper, and you already have a fairly recent version of the rules, you don't absolutely NEED to get this book: your copy will still work. Nothing in the previously-existing material has been made obsolete or invalid. (Maybe keep this new one in mind for a gift or wish-list item, though!)
If you're new to the game, and don't already have a copy of the Call of Cthulhu rule book, don't fret about buying this version if your friends or your Keeper have the previous version. They'll work together just fine!
Really, this is just an updating of the 5.6 edition rules (even the cover art is the same), with a few tweaks and so on. That's the Chaosium approach, and one I really admire: Unlike D&D 3.5, when Chaosium does a new edition, they don't try to make the most recent previous edition obsolete. They don't try to *force* you to buy the new one. It may not pull in the most money, but it does make for very loyal customers. (Chaosium vs Wizards of the Coast is a little like Linux vs Microsoft.)
