Keywords in Book Data

Often a book buyer is looking for a book about a particular topic (for example, Italian cooking) rather than one by an author or one with a specific title. Using keywords to help describe your books also helps book buyers find your books.  A comprehensive list of keywords for a book includes words from its title, as well as descriptors of the type of book or style it is written in.
