Hard Cover. Brand New. Authors: Jason Epstein, 188 Pages, List Price: $21.95. .The book industry stands at the edge of a historic transformation. Publisher Jason Epstein - the first recipient of the National Book Award for Distinguished Service to American Letters - tells us what the future holds. Epstein created Anchor Books in 1952, launching the so-called quality paperback revolution. In the following decade he was co-founder of the New York Review of Books. In the 1980s he created the Library of America and the broad-based Reader's Catalog, the printed precursor of on-line bookselling. In this book, based on lectures given at the New York Public Library, Epstein discusses the crisis facing the book business today & looks ahead to an industry radically transformed by electronic distribution. "Reading [Epstein's] book is like enjoying a great jazz impresario: there's a wonderful riff coming at any moment."
