(the best of) New Order is a compilation released in 1994. It consists mainly of 7" mixes of the group's singles from 1985 onwards, though "True Faith" and "Bizarre Love Triangle" appear in alternative mixes, and the collection also includes one non-single track, "Vanishing Point" (from the LP Technique). Only "Thieves Like Us" (the oldest track included, dating from 1984) appears in the same form as on the earlier compilation, Substance.

The U.S. version of the album omits three tracks ("The Perfect Kiss", "Shell Shock" and "Thieves Like Us"), but adds one track from each of New Order's first three albums and a previously unreleased vocal version of a track from the 1987 film soundtrack Salvation!, "Let's Go (Nothing For Me)". The liner notes (first on a New Order album) were provided by Paul Morley.
