Charm shown by publication — new version of Times (9)
I believe the answer is:
magnetism
'charm' is the definition.
(thesaurus)
'publication new version of times' is the wordplay.
'publication' becomes 'mag' (abbreviation for magazine).
'new' becomes 'n' (common abbreviation eg NT for New Testament).
'version of' is an anagram indicator.
'times' anagrammed gives 'etism'.
'mag'+'n'+'etism'='MAGNETISM'
'shown by' is the link.
(Other definitions for magnetism that I've seen before include "Attraction" , "Attractive force" , "Drawing power" , "Charisma" .)
