Synopsis
The years since the 1960s have seen a period of unprecedented change in British book publishing. This re-shaping has been an irregular process, with trends established in one period being reversed the next only to be taken up again a few years later. In British Book Publishing as a Business since the 1960s Eric de Bellaigue traces this convoluted pattern which has led to the creation of several multi-media groups, and in turn the individual stories of some of the major publishers, such as Collins, Octopus, Chatto, Bodley Head & Jonathan Cape, Associated Book Publishers, and Penguin. The study concludes with an examination of the contrasting profitability of trade publishing groups of different sizes, the expanded role played by venture capital money in the funding of publishing businesses and the impact of conglomeration on literary standards. The prospects for literary agents and self-publishing, as well as the opportunities presented to publishers by developments in digital printing, are also assessed., The years since the 1960s have seen a period of unprecedented change in British book publishing.

    Excellent seller. Package was delayed ( by bad weather) and then misplaced at PO( placed in wrong box #) but I contacted the seller and they responded quickly and I got my item today. This seller went the extra mile and I would highly recommend them and will shop here again. I also want to say the price for this complete hard to find item was way below most of the other listings. Condition was good as stated, and although I've only watched the first disc it's quality is good. Thank you!!

    Purchasing form this company can at times be frustrating due to items never arriving, very low shipping time and the inability to track the items. But I gave them another chance and purchased many maps and books over the past few months and have received all of them. Last year, it was hit and miss. All items were in the condition as described. Packaging is minimal. The only downside is extremely slow shipping. I rate them a C+. Nothing to gloat about but eventually you will get what you wanted.
