As the knowledge economy takes shape, editors face many challenges.
Technology is transforming publishing, text is losing out to
graphics, and writing is distorted by cliche, hype and spin. More
than ever, editors are needed to add value to information and to
rescue readers from boredom and confusion. The Editor's Companion
explains the traditional skills of editing for publication and how
to adapt them for digital production. It describes the editorial
tasks for print and screen publications, from fantasy novels and
academic texts to web pages and government documents. It is an
essential tool for professional editors, as well as media and
publications officers, self-publishers and writers editing their
own work. This revised edition features extended coverage of
on-screen editing, single-source publishing and digital rights, a
comprehensive glossary of editing terms and a companion website
developed especially for students that includes editing exercises,
expert 'tips' and essential weblinks.
