description: Eight essays, most from the 1986-87 lecture series, explore the nourishment and the mutual, and interdependent exchanges between the press and the society that feeds and depends on it. A New Model for the Study of the Book was added as an introduction to the collection, and two of the original presentations are not included for technical reasons. The 1993 edition was published by The British Library. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
