Title

On the differences between publishing a book in paper and in the electronic medium

Source

Abstract

Compares the processes an author's manuscript must go through to become a book, in paper and in electronic form: noting the common and unique features of each of the 2 processes. Proposes definitions of paper book and electronic book; but excludes graphics, art and hypertext from the discussion. Distribution by floppy disc, rather than via network, is considered so as to achieve an even comparison between the 2 publishing processes. Concludes that publishing electronic books is cheaper than publishing paper books on a per book basis. The cost savings are realized by the subprocesses of the publication process that can be eliminated for the electronic medium and by the comparatively small space on a computer disc on to which the equivalent paper book can fit
