This peerless book heads off all the common mistakes of fragmented publishing crafts by teaching the whole of bookmaking - editing, design and production - as a single discipline. It’s the book I learned from, which may account for the chutzpah with which the original Whole Earth Catalog sprang whole and self-published into the world. Not least, Bookmaking is exemplary, is very well made itself. I‘m glad author Lee and publisher Bowker came out with a brand new second edition. A one-step shop for making effective sense in print.
