These are turbulent
times in the world of book
publishing. For nearly five centuries the methods
and practices of book publishing remained largely
unchanged, but at the dawn of the twenty-first century
the industry finds itself faced with perhaps the greatest
challenges since Gutenberg. A combination of econom¬
ic pressures and technological change is forcing pub¬
lishers to alter their practices and think hard about the
future of books in the digital age.
In this book
-
the first major study of trade publishing
for more than thirty years
-
Thompson situates the
current challenges facing the industry in a historical
context, analysing the transformation of trade
publishing in the United States and Britain since the
1960s.
He gives a detailed account of how the world
of trade publishing really works, dissecting the roles of
publishers, agents and booksellers and showing how
their practices are shaped by a field that has a distinc¬
tive structure and dynamic. By reconstructing this
dynamic he is able to shed fresh light on how best¬
sellers are made and on why many thousands of books
and authors find themselves marooned in an industry
increasingly focused on short-term growth and prof¬
itability. Against this backcloth Thompson analyses the
impact of the digital revolution on book publishing
and examines the pressures
-
both economic and tech¬
nological
-
that are re-shaping the field of trade pub¬
lishing today.
The outcome of nearly five years of research, this major
new book will establish itself as an exemplary work in
the study of contemporary culture and will be essential
reading for anyone interested in books and their
future.
