What are you looking for - your questions is a bit like how long is a piece of string 'cos if you don't know which one is suitable for you we have no chance without some details as to what you want, will use it for and how in depth you want to use it 
There is actually only two versions of PS per se. PS and PS Extended.
PS Extended is the same as PS but with a few more advanced features, like 3D capabilities, motion graphics. Both PS and PS Extended are aimed at the professional/advanced user end of the market.
You then have PS Elements and PS Lightroom which are different again.
PS Elements is similar to PS in many ways, with a lot of the features of PS but not all. The controls are generally simpler to use.
PS Lightroom is an editing package as well, again with a reduced amount of editing features but it has a image management package built in. Good if you have or plan to have a huge catalogue of images.
You'll notice the huge difference in price giving you some indication of the actual PS software.
*Student & Teacher versions of the above are available and these are the same full software packages as above, with a huge discount, if you can prove you are eligble to receive such discount.
As Kerioak says, it would help to know what you want it for.
