À propos de ce contenu audio
Richard Charkin's experience as a publisher is unique among his generation. Over the past half century he has been (at different times) a scientific and medical publisher, a journal publisher, a digital publisher and a general publisher. He has worked for family-owned, publicly-owned, and university-owned companies and start-ups. In this memoir he uses his unrivaled experience to illustrate the profound changes that have affected the identity and practices but not the purpose of publishing.
Of course there are stories about well-known personalities he has encountered in his career - Madonna, Jeffrey Archer, Robert Maxwell, Paul Hamlyn, Mohammed Al-Fayed and many more. But his primary purpose is to provide an insider's account of the social, technological, commercial and geographical developments as seen through the eyes of a gifted all-round publisher who has made a very significant contribution to the profession.
This is an insider's account of the last fifty years of the publishing industry: the
essential guide for writers, students of publishing, and book industry
professionals including librarians, booksellers, literary agents, printers,
copyright lawyers, digital experts.
