Synopsis


Publishing is a long-established profession that constantly renews itself in order to remain relevant and profitable. But what characteristic does a publisher in the 21st century need to succeed? How does the industry work? What are the roles and the processes that sustain it day by day? Richard Charkin provides the answers to these questions in an essential text subtitled ‘Lessons in publishing.’

All Rights Reserved is Richard Charkin’s follow-up to his internationally successful memoir My Back Pages. His unrivalled experience makes him the perfect choice to describe what it is that makes a successful publisher.  He explains the essential relationship with authors and literary agents, the roles of booksellers and wholesalers, he shows how English language publishing is an ever-growing international business, he examines the many roles that make the business tick, he analyses how the economics work, and how AI will change the industry and its processes.

This unique up-to-the minute description of the life of a working publisher today is an invaluable text for students entering the profession and for publishing professionals who want to know more about the industry they have joined.
