DESCRIPTION:The world of Anglo-American trade publishing in the early 21st
  Century looks very different from the world that existed in the 1960s and
  before.  A set of profound structural changes – economic\, social and t
 echnological – has transformed the industry. Based on five years researc
 h and more than 280 interviews\, John Thompson reconstructs ‘the logic o
 f the field’ of trade publishing to shed fresh light on why some books b
 ecome bestsellers while many thousands of others find themselves marooned.
