Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This revealing book collects and presents the insights produced by a society of professionals tasked with investigating the decaying state of the publishing industry. The team traveled the United States, speaking to publishers, artists, and other individuals involved with the book industry to understand why published books were decreasing in quality. They found, firstly, that publishers, driven by the market to produce books as cheaply as possible, had abandoned higher standards of design. This affected every aspect of production, from type selection and paper quality to illustrations and even the thickness of the final product. Leading the investigation to conclude that modern books are cheaply made on purpose. Secondly, the investigation demonstrated that demand had shifted away from elegant design due to the influence of non-literary pastimes. The trend towards prioritizing cheapness over craftsmanship has resulted in a loss of public appreciation for well-made books. This loss of appreciation, in combination with the industry's drive to meet the demands of mass production, has resulted in a perfect storm ending in the production of poorly-crafted literary products. The significance of these insights cannot be overstated, as they point to several underlying problems afflicting the industry. The book serves as a warning call and a plea to both publishers and readers to reconsider their priorities in order to preserve literary integrity. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.
