"This part of the guide will provide an overview of printing a book, first describing the processes of making a book and then considering some of their consequences for the economics of book production. The second part of this guide will give more detailed information on these processes; readers might wish to read both parts simultaneously, moving from overview to detail as needed, or to read the overview and then proceed to details. I explain the technical terms being used as they come up, but there is also a glossary in Appendix 2 that will be of assistance"-- Provided by publisher.
Includes bibliographical references and index.
Part 1: Overview -- Part 2: Step-by-step -- Part 3: On The Page -- Part 4: Looking at Books -- Part 5: The afterlives of books -- Conclusion.
