Product Description

Review
'This book is a wake-up call for anyone in the print media who has not yet grasped or embraced the realities of the digital world created by the Internet...He's [Gomez] done a good job. Print is Dead is a succinct and useful field guide to digial media.' - Anthony Cheetham, Literary Review

Product Description
For over 1500 years books have weathered numerous cultural changes remarkably unaltered. Through wars, radio, TV, computer games and fluctuating literacy rates, the book has, somewhat bizarrely, remained the more robust and culturally relevant way to communicate ideas. Now, for the first time since the Middle Ages, all that is about to change.

4.0 out of 5 stars Is print really dead?, 5 Jan 2008
By P. Shemilt "www.relevantandvalued.com" (Cambridge, England) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Explores the irresistible flight from print to electronic media and its impact on trade book publishing. Where Gomez triumphs is in developing a persuasive picture of the social, cultural and environmental momentum that calls for trade publishers not merely to replicate their book offering online but to rethink how to package and encourage readers to interact with their content in an era of scarce attention, always-on Internet, media multi-tasking and expectations of choice in a developed world where everything is available on-demand.
