Jason Epstein has led arguably the most creative career in book publishing during the past half-century. He founded Anchor Books and launched the quality paperback revolution, cofounded the New York Review of Books,
and created of the Library of America, the prestigious publisher of
American classics, and The Reader's Catalog, the precursor of online
bookselling. In this short book he discusses the severe crisis facing the book
business today—a crisis that affects writers and readers as well as
publishers—and looks ahead to the radically transformed industry that
will revolutionize the idea of the book as profoundly as the introduction of movable type did five centuries ago.
