Print on Demand publishing.

With all of these changes underway, the total book output (conventional printed on paper editions) has continued to rise. In 2002 there were 147,120 new books published in the U.S.

Books covering the printing industry in depth do not come around very often. This book represents new research into a revolution that is still in process.
