This is a book about the book. Is this a book? is a question of wide appeal and interest. With the arrival of ebooks, digital narratives and audiobooks, the time is right for a fresh discussion of what is a book.

Addresses issues such as globalization of publishing and the impact of the internet. This edition covers: how the industry has evolved; publishing functions - editorial, design and production, marketing, sales and distribution, and rights; the role of the author; copyright and contracts; and the sales channels for books in the UK.
