Studying printed books as physical objects can reveal not only how
books were produced, but also how their design and layout features
emerged and came to convey meanings. This concise and accessible
introduction to analytical bibliography in its historical context
explains in clear, non-specialist language how to find and analyze
clues about a book's manufacture and how to examine the
significance of a book's design. Written by one of the most eminent
bibliographical and textual scholars working today, the book is
both a practical guide to bibliographical research and a history of
bibliography as a developing field of study. For all who use books,
this is an ideal starting point for learning how to read the object
along with the words.
