I've tried to bring some focus to that vast landscape under the title of The Curious Incident of the Book in the Digital Age - "curious" because while the incredible revolutions we've lived through in the last 20 years may seem to have changed everything, when you really get down to it, nothing has changed at the core of our industry - it's still stories and the people who create those stories - the authors - that underpin everything. It's their imagination that inspires and moves readers and makes publishing much more than just another industry to work in - publishing is not to have a job but a vocation.
