In this irreverent analysis of the book industry, John Maxwell Hamilton argues that the best way to study books is not to take them too seriously. He provides a rich history of the book - from the days when monks laboriously hand-copied texts to the tidal wave of Titanic tie-ins - and gives a succinct overview of the state of the industry today.
