This reader is the definitive introduction to the growing field of Publishing. Students new to the field or searching for a context for their own research will find everything they need here. – Helen Marshall, Anglia Ruskin University, UK
Print Cultures is a bold and generous gift to the field. Readers will find seminal essays juxtaposed with surprises in each of the nine carefully curated sections, making it ideal for the classroom. I look forward to discussing this magnificent compilation with our graduate students for years to come, and the future of the book is brighter because of it. – Kyle Schlesinger, University of Houston-Victoria, USA
