Inside Book Publishing (Routledge)
This classic text sprouted extra side columns and design features for its fourth edition, newly incarnated as (inter alia) a textbook for burgeoning university courses about publishing. Books about books being a leitmotif in our work, we grabbed the chance to show off a little: specially commissioned wood engravings for ‘icons’ and playful ‘topic box’ logos spark interest in the 10 seconds during which browsers (bookshop or online) decide to buy or not. This is a textbook (so to speak) study in how we add value to a publisher’s books in ways they – and even authors as book-savant as these – may never have imagined or hoped.
‘Thank you very much for your brilliant work on the pages. Giles and I think the book looks extremely handsome!’
‘… the book looks fantastic. Many thanks for lifting the production values of the fourth edition to a new level of good, accessible and saleable design!’
