A lively history of one of America's oldest publishing houses,
published in conjunction with Wiley's bicentennial
Founded in New York City when Thomas Jefferson was president,
Wiley has been a significant player in the publishing industry for
two centuries. Now, on the occasion of Wiley's bicentennial, a
distinguished team of authors brings Wiley's rich history to life,
showing how the company has reacted to trends within the publishing
industry as well as to larger economic, social, and cultural
forces. "Knowledge for Generations" sheds light on the long-term
strengths and weaknesses of Wiley's business, illuminates the
continuities and changes over time, and shows how family ownership
has influenced the company's strategies, values, and corporate
culture. Drawing on unrestricted access to company archives and
interviews with key executives, the authors capture a story of
sustained business success, intriguing personalities, and dramatic
changes in the industry. Illustrated throughout with illuminating
photographs and graphics, "Knowledge for Generations" is a
must-read for anyone interested in the history of publishing.
