A Small Publisher's Perspective on the Textbook Controversy.
Hawke, Sharryl Davis; Davis, James E.
Social Education, v50 n1 p68-69 Jan 1986
Small publishers expect to make a profit with hundreds rather than thousands of products; they do not have to strive to please the broad middle of the consumer population. However, limitations plague small publishers, e.g., they cannot afford giveaways and discounts or to print a teacher's guide in full color. (RM)
