  How do I find the right publisher for my book? How do I make the initial approach? What will be done to my typescript? What reference system is most appropriate? How should tables be set out? Who prepares the index, and when? The answers to these and many other questions can be found in this concise guide, now fully revised and updated. It is addressed both to Blackwell authors and to authors in general, it tells you what to look out for when assessing publishers, what to expect at different stages of production, and how best to prepare your typescript so that the process will go as smoothly as possible. The editing, production and marketing of books are clearly explained. The book also provides hints on how to prepare floppy disks on your microcomputer for use in typesetting.
