'overturning' is the definition.
Although both the answer and definition are singular nouns, I can't understand how they can define each other.

'popular edition' is the wordplay.
'popular' becomes 'in' ('in' can mean trendy).
'edition' becomes 'version'.
'in'+'version'='INVERSION'

'the' is the link.
