This is a discussion of the nature of publishing: its processes, history and technologies. It also explores the relationship of technology to pedagogy and how publishing has been a part of reading and writing instruction throughout the 20th century. Today publishing is both an individual and a collaborative process that is commercially, organizationally and pedagogically driven. The goal of this book is to provide a theoretical, historical and philosophical conception of publishing that would help teachers who are beginning to work in computer-supported environments.
