Trade Review
“For several decades Herb Bailey was head of the Princeton University Press and one of America's most able and enlightened publishers. His Art and Science of Book Publishing became a classic in its field virtually on the day of publication. Twenty years later, I still cannot think of a more useful guide to this complex business that Bailey illuminates with unprecedented—and unsurpassed—clarity.”
“When I first read Bailey's Art and Science of Book Publishing twenty years ago, it forced me to rethink much of what I thought I'd understood about the hows and especially the whys of book publishing. I've kept a copy within reach ever since.” * Director, Yale University Press *
