The second edition<-->the first appeared in January, 2000<--> intends to keep writers and publishers informed about the latest technologies for publishing and promoting books. Included is new information on print quantity needed (PQN) technology for smaller press runs, online promotion, and e-books. A web site associated with the book is provided, a place where tips and tricks for publishing and promotion are updated monthly. Not at all a scholarly book, this is instead a popular how-to primer, without index, bibliography, or notes. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
