Description

A wealth of literature on the publishing business has appeared in diverse books and journals. This bibliography is a comprehensive guide to the available literature on how to manage the publishing process. Included are citations and annotations for more than 1,200 works related to publishing, with entries arranged in topical chapters to facilitate use. This volume includes works published from 1960 to the early 1990s. Because of rapid changes in technology, works on automation are limited to those published no earlier than 1980. The various works cited discuss all types of publishing, including trade, journal, and scholarly publications. Annotations are extensive, and provide a detailed summary of the work cited so that the reader may readily assess the usefulness of a given title.
