Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book argues for the removal of the duty on books and other printed matter in the United States. The author begins by pointing out that the duty on books is not only an additional expense for readers, but it also hinders the free circulation of knowledge and ideas. The author then goes on to argue that the duty is no longer necessary for revenue or protection, and that it is actually harmful to the American publishing industry. The author concludes by urging Congress to remove the duty on books, so that everyone can have access to the benefits of reading. This book will be of interest to anyone who is concerned about the free flow of information, the future of the American publishing industry, or the importance of education. The book is well-researched and well-argued, and it makes a compelling case for the removal of the duty on books.
