About this book
Part memoir, part history, Schiffrin's account of the collapsing standards of contemporary publishing offers an engaging counterpoint to recent celebratory memoirs of the industry written by those with more stock options than scruples, warning of the danger to adventurous, intelligent publishing in the bull ring of today's marketplace.
