By "whole different design" do you mean the green cover? If so that was only a Virgin Books working cover and was never available to buy in the shops.

The UK paperback is not updated, apart from the captions to the photo plates being added, (these weren't included in the hardback version), and the format is smaller than the hardback.
There is one group of colour photo plates in the hardback and there are also numerous other black & white pictures scattered throughout the book.
The paperback only has a selection of photos from the hardback version on two groups of photo plates, one colour & one black & white.
The American paperback is a larger format than the UK version and is basically a softcover replica of the hardback. That one contains all the pictures and photo plates but without the captions.
Hope that answers your questions.
