The Mechanic Muse — From Scroll to Screen - NYTimes.com
september 2011 by shadowsun7
Something very important and very weird is happening to the book right now: It’s shedding its papery corpus and transmigrating into a bodiless digital form, right before our eyes. We’re witnessing the bibliographical equivalent of the rapture.

The Editor as Wizard « Snarkmarket
april 2010 by shadowsun7
