This kind of situation is certainly best served by treating each edition as a separate work. Even if all of the authors remained the same, it should still be considered a new work. Treating such things as expressions of the same work has no real benefit, FRBR-wise, and often has the negative effect of producing an authorized access point that obfuscates the identity of the resource.
